Every child can see themselves represented in Big Cat books. We aim to give visibility and representation to everyone in society by including characters from a range of ethnic and social backgrounds, and by telling stories about people with differing abilities. Discover books with characters in non-traditional family structures, or storylines dealing with real-life issues including autism, deafness, and limb difference. We work with charity partners and experts to ensure that our stories and illustrations give a truthful representation so that our readers feel accepted and can see themselves in our books.
