About the author
John Grant
61 books3 followersLibrarian Note: There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name.
John Grant is a Scottish author and illustrator, possibly best known as the author of the Littlenose series of children's stories, which he read on the BBC's Jackanory in 55 programmes from 1968 to 1986.
As a student, Grant earned extra cash illustrating learned academic papers and designing menus, toast lists and illuminated addresses, and during National Service he drew cartoons for the official army magazine Soldier.
He originally invented Littlenose to entertain his children, but failed to find a publisher until BBC commissioned him to both write and present his stories of a little Neanderthal boy who was always getting into trouble. These proved a great success, and he went on to write and illustrate over 13 Littlenose books between 1968 and 1993.

I enjoyed reading this but once you have seen the new She-ra cartoon you will find Glimmer and Bow infinitely disappointing in this book. However She-ra is cool and looks like an absolute scouse babe so it was fun reading it in a strong scouse accent (I'm allowed, I am one) and that was fun.
I was also mildly disappointed by the fact that Bow was the one to make the hit as it is about She-ra and she is meant to be the heroine so that was kind of annoying. But overall it is a fun little read and I liked that everything was in the colours of the pansexual flag <3
