From bestselling fiction author and renowned poet JJ Bola comes this enchanting picture book about finding your voice.
Shy Girl dreams of singing, but whenever anyone is listening, she can’t make a sound. At school, she watches from the sidelines, too afraid to join in. But when a talent competition is announced, Shy Girl has to choose: Can she overcome her fears and find her voice on stage?
Masterful, heartfelt, and an ideal conversation starter for parents wanting to discuss the importance of self-expression and confidence with their children. An unforgettable follow-up to Fly Boy.
Clara Anganuzzi grew up in the Seychelles, where she was always drawing on every surface she could find. She studied illustration at Falmouth University before completing an MA in Children’s Illustration at Anglia Ruskin. Her work combines traditional techniques, including monoprint and pencil, with a love of animals, character, and gentle humour. She creates warm, narrative artwork with a strong sense of place and is known for her beautifully limited colour palettes.
