A book to remember for years . . . truthful and moving * Jacqueline Wilson * A stunning graphic novel with a powerful, poignant message * North Somerset Teacher's Book Award, praise for Joe Brady (& co-author Patrice Aggs) * A thought- and empathy-provoking comic * Three Peas (an organisation supporting refugees; praise for Joe Brady & co-author Patrice Aggs) * It is so rare to see disability and chronic illness ever depicted in children's fiction and to be done so well makes this an important and welcome addition to any collection. Any reader will be inspired and uplifted by the resilience and positivity with which Tosh meets her changed future. -- Joy Court * Love Reading 4 Kids * A forceful and evocative personal history of fortitude and resolve, mesmerisingly clad in whimsy, charm and beguiling imagination. -- Wim Wiacek * Now Read This! *
