Why in the World introduces citizenship topics in a sensitive way with heartfelt illustrations, helping to connect children's own experiences to larger issues in the world


Everyone has a home. Other people's homes might look different to our own. Sometimes we need to move to a new home. This book looks at why people move home, whether it's by choice, or because other factors have forced them to leave their home. It looks at ways we can help people to feel welcome in new places.


Full of empathy and emotion, these guides are an excellent first look at life's challenges. The notes included for parents and teachers offer a springboard for healthy discussion at home and in the classroom.
