'A revolutionary book on disability.' -Inclusive Storytime

'Catchpole's beautifully judged, child-friendly words ably evoke the fatigue and wariness of repeatedly being asked the same question rather than simply being accepted and allowed to play, while George's warm images amplify the delight of shared imagination.' -The Guardian

'Wonderful, delightful and important. [...] Not only will it help nondisabled adults and children understand what it is like to be singled out for being different, but it will empower disabled children and help them realise they don't have to justify themselves to people they don't know.' - Jen Campbell, bestselling author of Franklin's Flying Bookshop

'With beautifully characterful illustrations and plenty of calming white space, it exudes gentle energy and humour to appeal to every child. This is a stunningly clever book.' -BookTrust

'The beauty of What Happened to You? is its focus on empathy... a brilliant book to open up the conversation with pre-school kids.' -Disability Arts Online

'A groundbreaking picture book reflecting the world of a visibly disabled child... a funny and very enjoyable read that will nevertheless perform an urgently needed task and generate very useful discussion at home and school.' -LoveReading4Kids

As a disabled person who often felt the need to make up answers as to why I was missing fingers (sharks! witches! *insert other ridiculous things here*), I wish I'd had James' book to read as a child. Not only will it help nondisabled adults and children understand what it is like to be singled out for being different, but it will empower disabled children and help them realise they don't have to justify themselves to people they don't know - Jen Campbell, bestselling author of Franklin's Flying Bookshop

James Catchpole's wonderful new book What Happened to You? is a great way of introducing body differences to the very young, in a way that's fun, sensible, natural and easy to enjoy. I'd say any child would benefit from this book, and moreso, any parent, especially those who feel awkward around the subject of disability - Mat Fraser, Actor and writer
