A genuinely uplifting, heartfelt, inclusive and moving story, fizzing with mischief and humour * Ian Eagleton, author of Glitter Boy * Another cracker from Jen Carney! Characters to love, cartoons to make you chuckle and plenty of page-turning drama and surprises * Sarah Hagger-Holt, author of The Fights That Make Us * Full of humour, thought-provoking and highly inclusive, this is a series that I cannot recommend highly enough as one to add to KS2 classroom shelves * Jacqui Sydney, Ex KS2 teacher and children's book blogger * Reading this with my children (8 and 11) was an absolute joy. It made them laugh but it also made them think which is just what we look for in a children's book. * Andreina Cordani, author of Murder at the Christmas Emporium * Uplifting, sensitive & funny...Lots to learn about fostering & makaton...I loved it * Tom Griffiths, head teacher and book blogger * Thoroughly enjoyed...It took me right back to those rare unicorn days where something beyond unexpected happens at school. And what a family too, I love them * James Fox, author of The Boy in The Suit * A brilliant book that has Jen's fabulous drawings and hilarious observations by the main character, Ferris * Maisie Chan, author of Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu * The Day My School Got Famous is another winner. Genuinely funny and emotional, often at the same time, with a really powerful message about fostering and families. Ideal for Y4 * Jon Biddle, school teacher and book blogger *
