One boy’s parents travel from far-off lands to improve their son’s life. But what happens next is unexpected.

What does it mean when your parents are different? What shape does love take? And what happens when your parents sacrifice a part of themselves for you?

Drawing from the sacrifices his Chinese mother made to raise her young family in a small country town, author & illustrator Zeno Sworder’s drawings are full of beautiful detail and fairytale settings that explore his own journey from child to parent.

With humour and pathos, Sworder reflects on the strange nature of giving and receiving love and celebrates those parents who embrace a hard life for themselves in the hope of a better life from their children.

My Strange Shrinking Parents is on CBCA’s 2023 Notables list and nominated for Picture Book of the Year.
