“I wanted to give people a fun activity to help them get in the spirit of the book, and Milton Keynes is perfect because it’s so easy to get about.”
Equipped with a banner measuring more than two square metres, Iain will be hard to miss.

“People have responded so positively, it’s been wonderful,” said Iain, who took the book into schools during the editing process, asking teachers to read it to their children without any preparation, to ensure that it was easy to pick up and read.
“Having lived in Milton Keynes for most of my life, it’s been a privilege to launch a book here.”
