It’s been great seeing all the DW conversations lately on Insta so after last summer’s posters, I’ve been inspired to start creating more so instead of Demon Dentist, here are some incredible reads which feature young carers. @J_C_Pearson @sarahannjuckes

Found this gem on X & so glad I did. @J_C_Pearson has created a fab story that perfectly weaves historical facts with fiction. So many themes are wrapped up in the story inc. friendship, family, resilience & courage. Will be shouting loudly about this on my school visits 👏👍

One of our parents at school has loaned me this by @J_C_Pearson and I can't put it down. Great storytelling and I love the characters. Going to order some for school for our Year 6 to support WW2 topic learning📚

What a brilliant book. Such a different story set in WW2. I can't wait to talk about it with a child in my class who finished it last week. I'd told him that I thought Johnny was a wrong 'un but not realised just how bad! @J_C_Pearson #readingforpleasure

With content reviewed by @I_W_M , @J_C_Pearson #ShrapnelBoys packs a punch. That first page grabs you. And Tom Clohosy Cole’s cover? Unmissable. 🔥 @Usborne So much research has gone into this: real streets, real bombs, real resilience. Congratulations, Jenny!

‘The thing about courage is that you have it in you, or you don’t…it can be found in most - when need arises…take the chance to find the courage in you.’ Ronnie and Micky’s story is an absolute triumph, as I knew it would be. @J_C_Pearson’s characterisation is remarkable ❤️
