Anmeldelser
«Poignant, tender, and utterly absorbing, I defy you not to root for Jake and Maudie.»
Lisa Williamson, author of The Art of Being Normal
«What The World Doesn't See is a brave and tender book about loss, family bonds and not judging on first appearance. Jake is such a wonderfully unique and fully-rounded character, who happens to have a learning disability; the sort of character that is so rarely seen - yet is so vitally important - in fiction for young adults.»
Joseph Elliott, author of The Good Hawk
«An important and beautiful story about the tight bond between two siblings, and looking beyond a person's disabilities.»
Susin Nielsen, author of We Are All Made of Molecules
«An extraordinary story told by an incredible talent.»
Jasbinder Bilan, author of Asha and the Spirit Bird
«Eye-opening, heart-wrenching, and ultimately so uplifting. A hug of a book that holds the reader tight and says sometimes the world is too much and it's ok not to be ok.»
Rashmi Sirdeshpande, author of How to Change the World
