National Author's Day is celebrated on 1st November each year. This year, celebrate our writer in residence, Ivor Baddiel, and find out more about his new book, Brainchild.

As the weather turns colder, night draws in, leaves turn golden and pumpkins start to glow, it's the perfect time for some seasonal reading. October is made for mystery, magic and a few spooky thrills - so step inside Serial Mash and see what this season's readings has in store...

Introducing a brand-new book from Purple Mash Publishing, written by Ivor Baddiel and Jonny Zucker: Brainchild! It's an exciting book for 10-15 year olds which explores the battle between good and evil, and the limits and ethics of medicine.
