The cover features Lily entering the book through a keyhole with her companions, Mouse, Snake, Crow and Mole. She is wearing a red jumper. Jeans and sneakers. The snake is weaved through some of her hair, and the crow is holding a key, with a heart shaped to, in its beak. Gold lettering is used for the book title, Locked out Lily.

Rear cover of the hardback book Locked out Lily, with a signed nameplate card. The book inside is green with dark silhouette shapes of feathers, a bird, mouse, mole and snake. The nameplate has a stylised print of a crow, snake, mole and mouse around a tree stump, appearing to be talking to each other. Below that is the authors signature.

When @transguysteve.bsky.social walks to our local pharmacy, & spots this book in the charity shop by it. He bought it for my collection.

Is it a children's book? Yes.
Do I care? Not one jot!
