September 2022 Book of the Month

Juno Dawson has written her first picture book in joyful bouncing rhyme. It is great to read together and is illustrated with bright, busy and joyful characters from Laura Hughes. 

Everyone is asking what has happened to older brother Bill – and the children are imaging all sorts of varied, wild, exciting things that might have happened. The answer every time is “Hun, you need to chill” – the repetition and the rhymes making this so easy to read and such fun. But the underlying message is that we all need acceptance, that families are different – and Bill is now older sister Lucy. 

She’s still clever and funny

And kind and cool

She’s really rather brill…

And if people have a problem we shout…

Hun, you need to chill!

What a joyful, funny book about identity, acceptance, love and loyalty. Usefully, at the end, there is a brief paragraph about the Mermaids charity – who support families with transgender, non-binary or gender-diverse kids, plus helping the kids themselves.

A book that should be in lots of schools and classrooms to promote acceptance and love.
