My Big Mouth

Zusatztext I get asked a lot what is the book that you'd recommend to Wimpy Kid, David Walliams and Tom Gates fans? My answer is THIS. Informationen zum Autor Steven Camden is a leading spoken-word poet, performing as Polarbear. He also writes radio plays, teaches storytelling in schools and was a lead artist for the Ministry of Stories. His books include Everything All at Once. He is also the author of My Big Mouth. Chanté Timothy is an illustrator who creates work that often explores different themes of diversity. She loves experimenting with movement, expression and storytelling through her characters. Chanté’s first book debut called A Black Woman Did That by Malaika Adero in 2020 helped kick start her passion for children’s book illustration. Drawing for as long as she can remember, she’d always been that strange kid who’d ask for paper and pen to entertain herself instead of playing with dolls. Klappentext 'They think I'm cool.' Dom's face wrinkled up, 'Who cares?' But I did. I cared. When Dad leaves, ten-year-old Jay has questions. Where has he gone? Why did he go? When no one can give Jay the answers he needs, he makes up his own stories, setting off a chain reaction that sees regular old Jay go from just another face in the crowd, to the centre of attention. But being the coolest kid in school comes at a cost. As things spiral out of control, can the most unlikely person help him learn the most important lesson of all?
