WINNER of the Oscar’s Book Prize!
"This very funny, sweet story won the hearts of the judging panel. Oink!" @oscarsbookprize
"The surprise comes right at the start, and what a wonderfully dotty premise to begin a story with, about problem solving in the classroom. Brilliantly structured too" – Julia Eccleshare
"Everything about There's a Pig Up My Nose! is entrancing, from the title onwards; it also features the best PE excuse note ever" – The Guardian
“…we really want to understand and pick out the books that kids want, as opposed to the books that adults think they should want. The winner that epitomises that more than any other is John Dougherty and Laura Hughes’ There’s A Pig Up My Nose from 2018, which is just glorious.” – James Ashton, co-founder of Oscar's Book Prize (The Bookseller)
"totally daft and all the better for it" * The Evening Standard *
"Drawn and coloured with lively, happy, cartoonish freedom, showing a dad who cooks, some diversity in the class and lots of interesting detail at home, at the doctor's and at school, the book is delightfully funny." * The Sunday Times *
"John Doughtery’s splendidly surreal story is brought to life by Laura Hughes’ down to earth, gently dishevelled pictures – it’s a joy to read aloud, especially with a classful of children." * The Guardian *
