A beautiful, heartfelt adventure, perfect for celebrating all kinds of family and the love that brings them together.
This is the dark and starless sky, where just past the moon a planet drifts by.
And this is the planet that's full to the brim, with friendly and caring space people called . . . TIM!
Meet Tim and Tim - a couple who long for a family and set off on a quest to find their very own star child. This joyful, read-aloud adventure is a comforting, soothing read that's ideal just before bedtime. It's also a helpful jumping off point for early conversations about the experiences of LGBTQ+ families for the youngest readers.
From the author of My Daddies and the illustrator of The Perfect Hug and The Biggest Kiss
Fresh and funny . . . truly cheering entertainment
—— Nicolette Jones , Sunday TimesThis fast paced adventure is full of warmth and wit
—— Sunday ExpressI loved Uma - utterly brilliant
—— Eoin Colfer, author of Artemis FowlThis warm-hearted adventure is packed with silliness and madcap antics
—— S MagazineNot only will this book get kids talking about their emotions and how to handle them, it'll have everyone in hysterics, too. An instant classic, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.
—— i newspaperFor any child or parent that has ever had a fit of anger (so one for everyone, then)... Nadia Shireen is one of those rare illustrator-writers who can do both equally well.
—— The TimesLaugh-out-loud funny (with a great guide to grumpy moods . . .)
—— Daily MailCarney's lively, upbeat Billie is a welcome inclusive addition to the world of illustrated diaries. Her two mums feel like people I know, her weariness at explaining their existence just as familiar - and Billie herself is a treat, from her passion for biscuits to her determined pursuit of the school thief. Fun, funny, and deceptively clever.
The Accidental Diary of B.U.G. is immense fun and is the first book I have read in a single sitting in a long time! It's warm, funny and has the best joke involving childbirth that you could put into a children's book!
A brilliant, hilarious and heartwarming book! I'm pretty sure if I'd read this as a child it wouldn't have taken me quite so long to understand and accept my own queer identity. Amazing for normalising same-sex parenting and adoption, completely laugh-out-loud funny and a feast for the eyes with lots of fun and engaging doodles. I loved it!
