My Big Secret

A wonderfully witty look at supporting your team . . .Hilarious illustrations . . . will entrance the readers as they follow the little pig’s dilemma and wonder how they could solve it in their own family.

Fran Knight, ReadPlus

This is a carefully structured story full of suspense and big emotions, echoed and expanded in the humorous illustrations . . . deserves a place on both home and library shelves. This plea for tolerance, understanding and acceptance could not be more timely.

Mia Macrossan, Storylinks

This fun story is about acceptance. Not being afraid of just being you . . . Colourful and bright, it ends on a lovely note.

Jane Stephens, Good Reading magazine

. . . a witty and super fun picture book. The bold illustrations have lots of great visual literacy to unpack which gets a seal of approval from me. While at a basic level this is a book about sporting teams, even the youngest readers will get the idea that being ‘on a team’ can apply in so many different/all aspects of life . . . a well-executed book, with great messaging done well.

Megan Daley, Your Kid's Next Read

The best picture books span all age groups, and this is definitely one of those.

Barbara Braxton, The Bottom Shelf

A great read aloud to share with young ones . . . and be prepared to have great chats.

Paul Macdonald, The Children's Bookshop

This book is perfect for sparking conversations about feelings, kindness,and being true to yourself. In one word - perfect!

This seemingly simple book has so many layers of meaning packed into it, that in today’s climate of distrust, disapproval, dislike – even downright hate – make it worth sharing over and over again . . . pure joy!
