But maybe, just maybe, Theo will discover that accepting your friends just as they are is much more important than being normal. After all, why be normal... when you can be yourself?

About the Author

Ged was born in Liverpool and as a child he was obsessed with drawing, listening to music and making up tunes.

In 2016, his story about a short-sighted dog, Douglas You Need Glasses! received rave reviews and became his breakthrough picture book. Ged has since written and illustrated many books including Shark Dog! and A Fox Found a Box.


He lives in London with his partner Helen and their son Rex.
