Why in the World: Why is there Racism? cover

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


We are all humans. Everyone has the right to be treated equally. So why is there racism? This book explains what racism is, from unkind words in the playground, to racist behaviour around the world. It looks at ways we can all support each other to ensure that everyone feels included.


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.
