Weirdo - Zadie Smith - Nick Laird - Magenta Fox

Weirdo🎈

Award-winning writers Zadie Smith and Nick Laird have now created a perfectly crafted picture book that is simple in its telling and strong in its message.✨

When Maud arrives as a surprise for Kit’s birthday she is treated with great suspicion by the pets who are already in residence. Since she is not like them - a cat, a bird or a pug dog - they are swift to deem her to be a weirdo. Briefly, Maud tries to fit in before taking herself on a life-changing adventure in which she soon discovers that being yourself is far, far more important than fitting in.🌳🎈
Weirdo is an endearing story about the quiet power of being different by two veteran writers, and introduces an exciting debut illustrator. Together they have created a picture book that adults and children alike will treasure.

Paperback 32 pages

Dimensions: 28.6 x 22.2 cm

Magenta Fox’s gentle illustrations are the perfect foil to this punchy celebration of individuality.
