And..it's a wrap!

    Updated: Jan 27

    Today's author visit to Waddington and West Bradford CE Primary School was the last of 2022! Seven schools in as many weeks- it's been an absolute pleasure meeting such delightful, inquisitive, confident, bright children here in the Ribble Valley!

    Next term The Best Kept Secret is spilling the beans further afield, with visits to schools in Stalybridge, Burnley and Colne pencilled in for March to coincide with #WorldBookDay. Though please do spread the word as there are still many children here in The Ribble Valley who are still completely unaware of the secret on their very own doorstep!




     
     
     

    Clitheroe Castle Museum book signing - and doodling!

      Updated: Oct 23, 2022

      A very sincere thank you to everyone who attended the 'The Best-Kept Secret' book signing and doodling event at Clitheroe Castle Museum today!

      Eli John and Sophie loved meeting you all and appreciated every single one of you who made the effort to climb to the top of the hill to meet the dastardly duo behind The Best-Kept Secret and to get your copy signed & doodled!


      Special thanks to all the children from Barrow URC Primary School, Clitheroe St. James', Sabden Primary School, Grindleton C E Primary School and beyond who dragged their parents to meet us after their author visit this week! We are truly humbled by your support.


      Thank you also everyone at Lancashire County Council, Ribble Valley Borough Council Lancashire Museums, Miles, Claire and everyone at Clitheroe Castle Museum who looked after us so well.

Despite the threat to their very existence a few Brick and Mortar Stores with strong ethical principles and values, have bravely stepped forward to stock The Best-Kept Secret.
