All I want is for my family to be proud of me. . . An accessible child-centered story about self-acceptance and the importance of opening up to those closest to you. Becky and Josh are almost-twins, with two mums and the same anonymous donor dad. Josh can' t wait until he' s eighteen, the legal age when he can finally contact his father, and he' ll do anything to find out more - even if it involves lying. Becky can' t stop thinking about her new friend, Carli. Could her feelings for Carli be a sign of something more? Becky and Josh both want their parents to be proud of them. . . but right now, they' re struggling to even accept themselves.
Warm, funny and believable, this coming-of-age story is thought-provoking without ever sacrificing plot to "issues". * The Guardian *
