Product Description
A sea-born creature, who never quite belongs, discovers who she really is, in this powerful illustrated song about metamorphosis and finding your true home. Writer Jay Hulme's 'little epic poem' is a tender and uplifting parable about the transgender experience, with breathtaking illustrations by Iranian-British illustrator Sahar Haghgoo. For young readers age 5 and up. Here Be Monsters is part of the 10 Stories to Make a Difference collection: ten original illustrated stories for young readers, all inspired by the theme of Difference. The collection features a mix of well-known and emerging writers and illustrators, giving a platform to untold stories and diverse new voices. Proceeds from sales supports Pop Up’s work in deprived schools, marginalised communities, and with talented aspiring and emerging writers and illustrators.
Customer Reviews
I loved reading this gem about finding yourself and living into the fullness of your potential and seeing yourself as a reflection of the creator, perfect as you are. However, it is clear that for many of us who are not just like all those around us, this journey can be lonely and painful at times. The illustrations are fabulous and the poetry so evocative. I have been sharing it with my middle-schoolers at school who often feel the growing pains of trying to figure out their own identity. Thanks! for this wonderful book.
