Sue Johnson released her second book, Eek Went the Squeak last week. It includes the main character from her debut book, The Adventures of Vinny The Vet & Mr Jangles.

As with many other authors across the county, Ms Johnson took part in this year’s World Book Day, which celebrated its 25th year on March 5, when she visited Purston Infants School in Featherstone.

She said: “I love storytelling. I put on funny voices and facial expressions, helping deliver a valuable, fun and interactive story-time.

“I am genuinely interested and empathetic to the needs of children as they negotiate the many milestones in their lives and, when I worked in schools, I would help out where I could when it came to reading and literature.

“World Book Day is a fantastic day to bring characters and books alive - I am sure the real Mr Jangles would have loved to visit all the children too if he were allowed.”
