Recensioner i media

... gently and subtly encompasses not just the issue of war and displacement, but also points a finger to climate change and despite serious themes sends out such positivity and hope.Lyrical, poetic and emotive, this is a book of looking after each other, of togetherness and openness and support. Calm, hopeful and full of love, compassion and ‘being there’-ness, I love reading this at bedtime, but it’s also a book that would be perfect for schools. All year groups could get so much from this – it should be in every class.
