"Life-affirming and laugh-out-loud funny" -
HELEN FIELDING, AUTHOR OF BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY
Shape of a Boy is a hilarious and eye-opening travel memoir by the mother of three boys as she documents her travels with her family around the world.
‘Have kids, will travel’ is veteran travel journalist Kate’s mantra. Her intrepid spirit is infectious in this
warm, engaging
account of her family’s
adventures and misadventures. She shares the life lessons learnt on their travels, from overcoming disappointment in
Thailand to saying sorry in
Japan, discovering perseverance in
Borneo and learning about conservation in
Malaysia.
From the
jungles of southeast Asia to the
waterfront in Havana and the
blazing heat of Egypt,
Shape of a Boy captures the essence of
being a parent in the thick of it and learning on the hoof. Inspirational for anyone who has dreaded travelling with a baby, toddler, or teen, it is a life-affirming read for every wannabe-traveller.
Kate’s
vivid evocation of the highs and lows of family time make you
belly-laugh and bring a
lump to your throat.
“Hilarious and wonderfully fluent, Shape of A Boy makes you see each corner of the world afresh. I read it in one long, lounging read, which took me away from Covid to a vibrant world of orangutans and elephants and a family growing together.”
ANDREW CLOVER, best-selling author of
Dad Rules
This is a
must-read for every wannabe-traveller grounded by lockdown and for every parent who has dreaded travelling with a baby.
