My new picture book, SOUTH, is out today! When Pip’s family fly south for the winter, they forget one very important thing… Pip! What follows is an epic adventure about family, friendship, finding your flock and discovering that home is never as far away as it seems. I hope you enjoy the journey.

🎃 With #Halloween creeping up on us this Saturday, I’ll be digging into the #DrawWithRob archives and sharing a spooky drawing video EVERY DAY this week. First up, an absolute classic from Halloweens past… a jack-o’-lantern! ✏️ 👉https://youtu.be/CuaAD38Cbyw?feature=shared

A truly magical event at Shakespeare’s Globe today. The Sam Wanamaker Playhouse is just so beautiful and cosy. It was lovely to be up close and personal with my audience. A huge thank you to everyone who came along, especially the actual Peanut Jones who turned up yet again (see thread).

✏️PENCILS AT THE READY, TEAM! In this special #Halloween episode of #DrawWithRob we're summoning a cute Grim Reaper! So grab some paper and something to draw with and be brave! Remember to share your pictures using #DrawWithRob. GOOD LUCK! 👉https://youtu.be/3yYZohYhcjo

💀 It's THAT time of year! That’s right, I’ll be uploading the 2026 #Halloween episode of #DrawWithRob tomorrow morning at 10am! We’ll be drawing a VERY cute Grim Reaper – because even the Harbinger of Doom can be adorable, right?! 🎃✏️

Wowed by the wonderful Wolf windows at Waterstones. Wicked to see Leeds, Oxford and Windsor all werewolfed up and looking wonderfully wild! This post is brought to you by the letter W. #Halloween

We've officially entered the run-up to #Halloween and I happen to know a book that might be just the ticket for the season. If you don’t believe me (and I’ll admit I might be a little biased, having written it myself), here are a few other people who might just persuade you… 👉 tinyurl.com/nhcymy72

Another double festival weekend, this time it was Guildford Book Festival and Wimbledon BookFest. As you can see the actual Peanut Jones and the actual Odd Dog turned up in Guildford. 1/2

And the Children's BOTM is @robbiddulph.bsky.social's The Last Wolf, a very fun illustrated werewolf mystery caper which finds a group of adventurous children seek out the monstrous truth about their hometown of Moonhaven... 🌕🐺 Check out the author's clip below: bsky.app/profile/robb... #KitLit 🪐📚💙

To celebrate THE LAST WOLF being named Waterstones’ Children’s Book of the Month, I thought I’d read you the prologue. That way, you can get a little taste of the story and see if it’s something you and your kids might enjoy. Hope you like it… 🐺

Back from a solid week of touring that took me to Surbiton, Stockport, Catterick, Retford and Norwich, before culminating in a trip down to Devon for Budleigh Salterton Lit Fest. 1/3

Huge thanks to all of the kids, teachers, schools and booksellers, and, of course, my team at Pan Macmillan. These things are a massive undertaking for all involved and I really appreciate it. 2/3

Special thanks to everybody who came to see me in Budleigh S. We had a marvellous full house which, as you can see, included the actual Peanut Jones! 3/3

Tomorrow at 10am, I'm going to show you all how to draw Jax Winter, one of the main protagonists in The Last Wolf. So pull on your moon-proof cloaks, sharpen your pencils, and let's do this... 🐺 #DrawWithRob

I paid my final visit to the #PackedLunchPostIt exhibition at St Albans Museum + Gallery today (it ends next week) and just look at the Visitors’ Gallery!!! Absolutely amazing to see how many people have contributed a drawing. 1/2

Huge thanks to Cat (pictured) and the fabulous team at the gallery for making such a fun and interactive show. I have loved every minute of it. If you didn’t get to visit, don’t worry. I may have some news that will make you happy very soon… 👀 2/2
