Packed with colourful illustrations and full of fabulous rhyming verses, Birmingham Boy is a joyful and thought-provoking picture book for children and families.
Birmingham Boy is both a lighthearted story and a means of opening up deeper discussions with little people around the themes of social justice and homelessness. And even though it is set in Birmingham, UK, this story is really for any child, in any town or city.
10% of the profits from Birmingham Boy book sales are donated to Homeless One, a voluntary organisation that supports the homeless and vulnerable in Birmingham, providing hot meals throughout the week.
About the Author:
Kate is an award winning author and illustrator, currently living in Wales, U.K. m
As well as writing and illustrating, Kate runs Dune Books: a tiny independent publishing house. Kate stocks, manages and distributes all orders herself, with books being sent around the world to countries including New Zealand, Canada and Indonesia.
Kate sells her books direct to bookshops and via Etsy but she does not sell on Amazon. She therefore relies on building good working relationships with indie-booksellers.
Kate really appreciates it when readers leave reviews on Goodreads and their social media accounts, because it really does help her books to reach more people.
