But It’s Not FairBuy the book

For parents and carers

Choose the book. Share the story. Keep the conversation safe.

But It’s Not Fair begins with family, school and friendship. This guide helps adults decide whether it is right for their young reader and discuss its serious themes without turning reading into an interrogation.

01

Look inside first

Read the authorised twenty-page preview before buying. It shows the genuine writing, illustrations and tone of the published third edition.

02

Begin with the characters

Ask what Vinny notices, why friendship matters and when keeping a secret becomes unsafe. Let the young reader decide how much they want to say.

Use the discussion prompts →
03

Do not seek disclosure

Do not ask a child to compare the story with their own family or community. A safeguarding concern should be handled privately through the correct local procedure.

04

Make room for enjoyment

This is a novel, not a test. Humour, friendship, family life and suspense matter. A young person should be allowed to read for pleasure as well as think about the wider issue.
