'FABULOUS, HOPEFUL, IMPORTANT' - Emma Carroll

A beautiful and uplifting story from L.D. Lapinski, author of The Strangeworlds Travel Agency, about how to make your own place when the world doesn't think you fit anywhere. For fans of Me, My Dad and The End of The Rainbow.

Jamie Rambeau is a happy 11-year-old non-binary kid who likes nothing better than hanging out with their two best friends Daisy and Ash. But when the trio find out that in Year Seven they will be separated into one school for boys and another for girls, their friendship suddenly seems at risk. And when Jamie realises no one has thought about where they are going to go, they decide to take matters into their own hands, and sort it all out once and for all.

As the friends' efforts to raise awareness eventually become a rooftop protest against the binary rules for the local schools, Jamie realises that if they don't figure out a way forwards, they might be at risk of losing both their friends forever...

Jamie Reviews

Fabulous, hopeful, important * Emma Carroll, author of Secrets of a Sun King *
A joyful, heartfelt story of claiming your true identity. L. D. Lapinski has created something truly special and also very important * Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear *
A real triumph, bursting with joy * Carlie Sorosiak, author of I, Cosmo *
A hugely important, deeply moving and utterly joyful story about staying true to yourself and the power of protest. It's impossible to read this book and not come away buoyed with hope for a more accepting and inclusive future. Everyone needs to read Jamie - their story is destined to become a classic. I loved it! * Aisling Fowler, author of Fireborn *
Protest, pride and the promise of change; Jamie is magnificent. * Lizzie Huxley-Jones, author of Vivi Conway and the Sword of Legend *
This book is going to mean a lot to non-binary kids but especially too to kids still learning and figuring things out ... a treasure * Marieke Nijkamp, author of This is Where it Ends *
