To celebrate World CP Day on October 6th, I'm giving away three signed copies of Thimble Wonga Bonkers, third in the series about a boy with CP and a very random monkey, which began with Thimble Monkey Superstar, shortlisted for the 2017 Laugh Out Loud Awards. Just go to
and you'll find instructions how to enter the draw. And while I'm here I'd just like to update everyone with news of my son Jordi, who had a double femoral osteotomy in June 2018. Both bones have now completely healed (it did take a long time) and Jordi is now able to walk unaided, although he does still use a walker for getting around school. His voice is also a lot deeper than it was on the youtube video!

Hello @jonblake
That's great news about Jordi and his successful surgery
The book's illustrations and theme tune were fab too! I'm not sure I saw a way to enter the prize draw in the video - do people have to click a link?Online Community Co-ordinator
