Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Baby Bear go for a walk in the woods. Possibly for a picnic. The picture is from PriceClan's latest picturebook, Goldilocks and the Three Bears. I originally published the text with Cambridge University Press as part of their early reading series, but the illustrations are new, by my brother Adam. When I commented that Papa Bear and Mama Bear reminded me very much of Papa Price and Mama Price, Adam said, "Well, yeah . Obviously."      But soft! Who comes here, into this woodland glade? Goldilocks discovers the bears' house.        These images are by PriceClan's younger brother, by the way. Adam, not Andrew. Concentrate. Three Billy Goats Gruff                 Andrew is the older brother , and illustrated my Three Billy Goats Gruff. The Runaway Chapatti    Adam is the younger, and illustr...

Welcome back! I’m so excited – we can watch the arrival of Little Billy Goat Gruff and his special guest, Tinku live, as it happens! Via our amazing Goat-Cam installed in their limo! Tinku Tries To Help, written and illustrated by Adam Price   And we're back! I'm talking to one of the stars of the Three Billy Goats Gruff , Little Billy Goat Gruff.    Three Billy Goats Gruff Story Book  "Who's trip-tripping across my bridge?" This well-loved traditional tale is here retold by Carnegie Medal-winning author Susan Price, and illustrated in an exuberant slap-stick comic-book style by artist Andrew Price. Children will love it for its suspense and humour as they enjoy chanting out loud the repeated refrains. Adults will appreciate how the repeated words and syllables help children recognise how sounds are reproduced in letters. This book is by a UK author, but the wording of ...

Hi folks and welcome back! I'm reporting from the launch party for Three Billy Goats Gruff and they're all arriving - I hear Great Big is in the building but we can't speak to him right now - But another limo's pulling up... Who's this arriving? It's Chapatti!    Star, of course, of that wonderful, ' The Runaway Chapatti ,' which has been such a hit!      I'm going to try and get a word with him...   Find The Runaway Chapatti here.   Never mind, folks - there are plenty more limos circling the block and I'll be here throughout bringing you up-dates - be sure to check back in now... Originally written for the Cambridge Reading series, this is Carnegie Medal-winning author Susan Price’s retelling of the traditional story ‘The Gingerbread Man.’ "Once a girl made a chapatti for her tea. But the chapatti didn’t want to be eaten. Up from the table it jumped, and out of the...

The Runaway Chapatti, by Susan Price, Illustrated by Adam Price Here it is at last! After much discussion, arguing, editing, proofing, arguing - well, this is a PriceClan production - alterations, rewriting, arguing - the chapati is on the run again. It's been out of print for a while, but the wonders of indie-publishing make it possible for me to bring it back. There has been a bit of delay in getting the book on sale. It's a collaboration between me and my brother Adam, the illustrator. For the sake of convenience, it was published from Adam's CreateSpace account - and that caused the problem. To their credit rather than otherwise, Amazon almost immediately 'suppressed' the book (their term) while they checked whether either or both of us had the necessary rights. We both emailed them, quoting our membership numbers and explaining - and although I've heard nothing from Amazon, I see that the book is again available. It's an early-reader boo...

          Blott - the writer's muse who manifests as an ink-blue cat - investigates e-readers ...            I'm cheating a bit here, as Blott is written and drawn by my brother, Adam Price, and not by me.  But I thought it might give people with old and brand new Christmas pressie e-readers a laugh.           More Blot cartoons can be found, most weeks, at my blog: http:// susanpricesblog.blogspot.com /           And at my website: susanpriceauthor.com           There may even be a Blott e-book one day....
