Great Book
I bought this book as part of my niece’s birthday present. She loved that fact that lily had a ‘lockdown’ birthday too. Great book, well illustrated. The author has teamed up with The Chartwell Children’s Cancer trust to help raise money for the charity, which is really sweet.
Sally O’Connell
A Lovely Story
A perfectly written story which covers lots of different events during lock down. A perfect read for any parent to share with their child. The author is also donating all proceeds to a children's cancer charity.

Wonderful!
Absolutely brilliant for helping children to see beyond disabilities and focus on the person. Loved it and can’t wait to share it with others.
Emma Reid
Great book to help kids understand disability & view disabilities positively
The story is thoroughly charming and heart-warming! It subtly helps children (and adults!) to view disability more positively and encourages a ‘can do’ attitude which Sam demonstrates day-to-day in real-life.

Wonderful story with brilliant illustrations
In the words of William age 6...
"I loved the book so much. Especially when Sam blew raspberries on Lily's tummy. I also really liked when they fixed the swing" A note from dad...
“A really wonderful book with fantastic illustrations which tells an amazing story of strength, positivity and love. Highly recommend.”
