Our Big Day

Bob Johnston is a author who was previously the owner of The Gutter Bookshop in Dublin, Ireland, which he sold in 2023 in order to concentrate on writing. His first picture book for children, Our Big Day, was published in 2022 and is a heart-warming introduction to the idea of same-sex partnerships and marriage equality. Johnston lives in a small cottage by the sea with his husband Leon and their dogs Jessie and Obie and is currently working on a number of manuscripts.

Ciaran has performed in bestselling audio dramas, comedy podcasts, and AAA video games, including the award-winning Bunny vs Monkey by Jamie Smart and E.C. Bateman's series The Stamford Mysteries. He has also volunteered with Talking Newspapers for the blind.
