This International Stammering Awareness Day, we want to celebrate a very special book that is coming next year - @emmabeswetherickauthor’s middle grade debut A Voice Like Mine 💬✨

A beautifully told story about friendship, courage and embracing our differences, Oro will capture your heart as she faces the many struggles of growing up with a stammer, alongside lots of humour and hope!

According to @stammauk, an estimated one million children in the UK (8% or one in every 12) experience a period of stammering. We hope that Oro’s story, which is inspired by Emma’s own, will help these children see their own unique brilliance and allow their peers to step into their shoes for even just a moment.

✨Publishing 4th February 2027✨
