Reviews

Bye Bye Baby is wonderful - I haven't enjoyed a picture book so much for years.

—— The Independent

Janet and Allan Ahlberg are to children's books what Ginger and Fred were to dancing: Bye Bye, Baby is surely destined [...] to become a classic.

—— The Guardian

Packs some powerful political punches...But Blackman never compromises the story, which is dramatic, moving and brave

—— Guardian

Stimulating and emotionally satisfying

—— Financial Times

A gritty read for older children . . . At times this is a beautiful love story; at other times it is a harrowing and moral tale...

—— Bookseller

—— Guardian

Inter-racial teenage love has never been more painful

—— Amanda Craig , The Times

A tender and compelling story about loving and belonging. Parsons masterfully takes us on a journey where the political is personal, where the most heartbreaking moments are also profound and beautiful. Ella is a character readers will care about, cry with, and cheer for. How High the Moon is a stunning debut that promises to have readers wanting more and more from Parsons

—— Renée Watson, author of Piecing Me Together

A stirring, emotionally resonant debut, How High the Moon opens a fresh and sensitive window on a terrifying time, even as it introduces us to a lovable new heroine

—— Tony Abbott, author of Firegirl and The Great Jeff
