 More about the book!

AJ Pearce says her own friendships inspired the characters in her debut novel, Dear Mrs Bird.

Dear Mrs Bird is a love letter to the enduring power of friendship, the kindness of strangers and the courage of ordinary people in extraordinary times. Marian Keyes calls it: ‘The sweetest, most uplifting, lovely book about courage, friendship, love … It’ll be huge; it deserves to be.’
