Praise for Jen Carney: Children’s Author & Illustrator
The Accidental Diary of B.U.G. series:
A sparky, funny new series perfect for fans of Diary of A Wimpy Kid
The Daily Mail
Ideal for fans of Tom Gates, or Pamela Butchart’s books . . . a wonderful new series.
The Week Junior, Book of the Week
This cheery, highly illustrated diary story, more rooted in contemporary reality than Liz Pichon’s Tom Gates books, is the first in a series that’s sure to find devoted fans.
The Guardian
The book is full of sharp and funny observations (nothing gets past Billie) and punctuated by quirky line drawings, diagrams and cartoons. Billie is a terrific character and readers will warm to her frankness and sense of humour. Move over Wimpy, there’s a new kid in town!
The Independent
The Day My… series:
This superb story thoughtfully explores neurodiversity, friendship, ethical dilemmas and the importance of standing up for what is right. Hilarious and heart-warming, it is the third book about Ferris and his family, which can also be enjoyed as a standalone tale.
BookTrust
Funny, heart warming and full of characters who become our friends.
LoveReading4Kids
Jen Carney writes with love and humour. A brilliantly funny, family-friendly story perfect for fans of dogs, pranks and adventures. Cleverly illustrated with comic strips and cartoons this is both easily accessible and inclusive, with representation of families of different shapes and sizes.
