Praise for Shape of a Boy....

 

'Anyone who has travelled with children will find this book uplifting, life-affirming and laugh-out-loud funny.'

Helen Fielding, author of Bridget Jones's Diary

 

'Highly entertaining, often hilarious...inspiring to all parents.'

Bel Mooney, The Daily Mail

​

'Travel writing at its finest - transports you to another place. Thoughtful and moving, this is a reminder of the bonding effect travel can have on a family.'

The Scotsman 

​

'Well written, well-paced, well amusing. Made me lustful for wandering - even with the kids!'

Ben Aitken, author of The Gran Tour 

​

A whip-smart and hilariously honest how-to (and how-not-to do) parenthood on holiday. My husband should take note.

Celia Walden, author of Payday.

​

'Hilarious' 'It'll give all the family itchy feet' 'Put off by having kids in tow...her overseas escapades with her three sons will make you think again.'

The Sunday Post

​

'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, author of Dad Rules

​

'One page made me laugh, the next made me cry. It's incredible how Kate makes you feel like you're on this journey together...'

Katie Bowman, Editor of Family Traveller

​

'All the travel I have been missing between these covers.'

Sue Moorcroft, author of A Home in the Sun

​

'Funny, inspiring, tender, and a little bit bonkers, global travel with three small boys, what could possibly go wrong?'

Gil McNeil, author of The Only Boy for Me

​

'Starting a family might slow down some travellers, but for the Wickers, kids have only made the adventures more fun. Every new destination provides a new lesson - and new laughs.'
