We are absolutely thrilled to announce that B. Ware has signed with us for her latest middle grade fantasy, WARNING: May Contain Dragons!
B. Ware is the pseudonym used by Jo Stacey when writing children’s books. An avid reader from a young age, Jo’s childhood dream was to become an author. Her love of writing evolved whilst she was in school, but in her final years at Clarendon House Grammar School, Jo decided to abandon her fascination with words in order to pursue a growing infatuation with numbers.
It wasn’t until she home-schooled her children during the COVID-19 lockdown that Jo’s passion for creative writing was finally rekindled, and she wrote her first romance novel. Straight afterwards, she put pen to paper to complete the sequel. But with her children in mind, she then turned her hand to middle-grade fiction. WARNING: Magic Can Be Dangerous! was the first book she has published, under the guise of her alter ego, B. Ware, and was published in April of this year.
Coming 2025, WARNING: May Contain Dragons is the hilarious second book in the Words of Warning series and will fire the imagination of middle grade readers!
When Willow’s mum drops a bombshell on Christmas Eve, Willow doesn’t think things can get any worse… then a dragon kidnaps her little brother!
With her dad busy and her mum absent, she enlists the help of her friends to track down and avenge the monstrous beast. But they soon find themselves out of their depth. Will Willow ever see her brother or her mum again? Will she and her friends even live to tell the tale? And how will the already struggling village of Harmony survive a dragon onslaught… if there really are dragons living there?
