"What Happened to You?" by James Catchpole is a groundbreaking picture book that tenderly explores the often-overlooked challenges faced by disabled children. This enchanting story, told through the eyes of Joe—a young boy navigating life with a missing leg—invites readers to engage with themes of curiosity, acceptance, and empathy.

With each outing, Joe encounters a flurry of questions: Was it a shark? A burglar? A lion? Through humor and warmth, the narrative encourages children to reflect on whether anyone should have to explain their differences at all. This relatable yet profound storyline fosters a sense of understanding in young readers, prompting them to embrace diversity.

The book is not just a delightful read; it is also a vital tool for sparking meaningful conversations about disability, empathy, and inclusion. Its beautiful illustrations bring the story to life, showcasing the joy of imagination and play, while Catchpole’s gentle prose creates a comforting atmosphere for children to explore these important themes.

  • Award-winning: Critically acclaimed for its revolutionary approach to discussing disability.
  • Empowering message: Designed to uplift disabled children and educate nondisabled readers alike.
  • Suitable for all ages: Perfect for home reading or educational settings.

"What Happened to You?" is a must-have addition to any child's bookshelf, promoting kindness and understanding in young minds.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
