Piccadilly Lights begins today with the launch of the #PiccadillyOn campaign, in aid of children’s charity Barnardo’s. Piccadilly is at the heart of our beautiful Capital and I personally cannot wait to see it back with the shiny billboards.

I love books about London and London things.

I read and review a lot of books every year. I reckon in the region of 100 between novels, manuals and picture books. The book market is growing at an exponential level particularly children’s titles.
