An out-of-this-world story of friendship from the creators of Room on the Broom and The GruffaloThe Smeds (who are red) never mix with the Smoos (who are blue), so when Janet and Bill, a young Smed and Smoo, fall in love, their families strongly disapprove. But love conquers all and, in the happiest of happy endings, Janet and Bill not only bring their warring blue and red families together – they also celebrate the arrival of their beautiful purple baby!From the bestselling creators of Room on the Broom and The Gruffalo, this out-of-this-world story of friendship and family is a timely celebration of embracing our differences and finding common ground.
