Critics Review
[A] celebration of the relationship between father and son. * The Bookseller *[This is a book] about courage and being true to yourself. But it’s the supportive relationship depicted between this young boy and his father, beautifully captured in the cover image of Harry snuggling on his dad’s shoulders, which gives the book real heart. * The Observer *[This] book beautifully portrays the power of parental belief. The father’s unwavering support acts as a shield against self-doubt, empowering his son to confidently navigate the world. It’s a gentle reminder that we all possess inner resources that can guide us through life’s challenges. I would highly recommend this book for parents and children alike, offering a shared moment of inspiration and a gentle nudge to follow your own unique path. * Children’s Books Ireland *This beautifully crafted picture book…is subtle yet remarkably clever. Suzanna’s glorious, atmospheric full-page illustrations are a joy…and its refreshing to see such positive representation, with a supportive Black father and his determined son enjoying activities not often depicted in stories about Black people, such as flying planes and diving. * Jericho Prize *
