As VickNHope's latest novel for children hits shelves, the presenter shares her favourite books for kids and parents

As hosts of their school's radio station, our heroes Arthur & Grace realise just how powerful their voices can be when they work together. In Shout Out we want to encourage kids to stand up for what they believe in, to know that their voices and their stories matter, and that when they speak up together they can make a difference. We hope this book inspires children to start a student newspaper or a school radio station, to get creative and find confidence in their voice.

Where I had previously grappled with questions about my racial and cultural identity, I sought solace in Malorie Blackman's words as she painted a picture I recognised; I felt like I could better understand what my parents had suffered, and learned the importance of different perspectives, as she spoke to me of the futility of prejudice.I first read To Kill A Mockingbird when I was in year 5, aged 9.
