Gina Kaminski by Craig Barr-Green is a creative and empowering picture book series for children aged 5+. Gina is a bold, neurodiverse character who leads the storytelling, offering her own distinctive retelling of classic tales—starting with Jack and the Beanstalk.
The text uses pictorial emoji language alongside words, offering a clear and inclusive way to express emotion and support early communication. Gina’s voice is confident and direct, encouraging all children to imagine, retell, and shape stories in their own way.
This is a thoughtful, engaging book for every child, particularly those exploring their own storytelling voice or looking for characters they can relate to.
