Review by Tessa

"I thought it was a great look into how different people and different families function, normalising disability and access needs."

Review by Matilda

"While this book covered many disabilities, families and experiences, while also providing a clear reassurance that coming over to the house of a disabled individual is nothing short of normal, it was confusing and hard to follow."

A cartoon of a white person with light orange-blush hair falling to their shoulders and blue eyes behind round, black frame glasses. they have a series of black studs in their ears and are wearing a cream and grey checkered button-up underneath a yellow T-shirt with an egg design on the right chest. they stand in front of an orange ombre background, with a sprinkling of yellow sparkles

Review by Aegon

"The story normalises the existence of disability and household accommodations, with the disabled characters and their personalities shining strongly both through text and illustration."
