The Most Amazing Saturday Morning Rubbish Club
“Thought-provoking over so many issues, and eventually inspirational, The Most Amazing Saturday Morning Rubbish Club raises inclusion in graphic novels to a new level“.
Frank Plowright, The Slings & Arrows
The Most Amazing Saturday Morning Rubbish Club is a creative collaboration between a writer and illustrator, both of whom have first-hand experience of parenting children with Special Needs, and therefore puts the lived experience of SEND children at centre-stage. Published by SelfMadeHero in 2025, this is a book for everyone interested in the universe of additional needs.
Its inspirational storyline appealing to parents and children, tells how three very different kids, each with different needs, come to share their own unique skills to achieve their goals. These spirited characters meet in the park and unite to establish a litter-picking scheme. Touching, funny, and beautiful, this unique collaboration is indeed… most amazing.
“Take three young people with complex needs, one homeless engineering genius and a secret underground bunker, throw in a police mix-up, a psychedelic carer and a great deal of rubbish, and you have the makings of a unique adventure story. As entertaining as it is candid, The Most Amazing Saturday Morning Rubbish Club explores the realities of living with disability and celebrates the ways in which neurodiverse children can make the world a better place, one crisp packet at a time.“
