Praise for I Am Lenny Brown

A landmark inclusive story

The Bookseller

Very short chapters, varied fonts and black-and-white illustrations make Lenny's story appealing and accessible to a wide range of readers. Ideal as a shared reading project to kickstart discussions about diversity, empathy and inclusivity

BookTrust

Such a brilliant thing to shine a light on. I can't wait to introduce this book to my children

Gordon Smart, BBC Radio 5 Live

I Am Lenny Brown is an absolute cracker of a book, and its hero isn’t one you will forget quickly. Huge of heart, it reminded me of writers like Morris Gleitzman and Jacqueline Wilson, and there is no greater praise I can offer than that.
