Cherub Muchamore Competition!

Hi everyone,

I was lucky enough to strike up a conversation with Robert Muchamore over email recently and he sent me some signed bookplates, some bookmarks and stickers.

I decided, in support of my book and his new Robin Hood title (out this week!) to give them away to some real Muchamore fans... if you head to my Facebook page, you'll find out how you can enter. www.facebook.com/benjaminshawbooks
