I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

"One thing I've learned since then is that life can be delicate and frail, but it can be full of colour and wonder. You just have to let it in."

This was just a special and important book and I am so glad I was able to receive an advance copy for review.

Me, My Dad and the End of the Rainbow tells the story of a young biracial boy whose parents have recently split up. All Archie wants is for everything to go back to normal and when his Dad comes out as gay he and his friends get an idea for how to fix it: going to London Pride together.

This is a well-written and funny book which tells a story all about the importance of family. The family you are born into and the one you chose. It's an important story that I wish could be put in every classroom and library so as many kids as possible can read it. Archie and his friends and family were well-realised, complex characters that most kids could relate to and the story was one that will definitely strike a cord with young LGBTQ+ children and kids with LGBTQ+ people in their families.
