I read @The_UKLA longlisted books every year so my house is full of them. BUT only a few capture my own kids’ imaginations enough to read & pass them to their friends. These 3 did that in 2024: @amconway_author HEDGEHOG @jprosewriter BIRDIE & @NateLessore KING OF NOTHING

& I am delighted that stammering is represented, we have a heroine who stammers & that others get to read about & consider the detrimental impact that bullying can have.

Yet another special reading fan of this truly beautiful book @amconway_author @publishinguclan
