No matter how you start your day, What you wear when you play, Or if you come from far away, All are welcome here.

Follow a group of children through a day in their school, where everyone is welcome. A school where children in patkas, hijabs, baseball caps and yarmulkes play side by side. A school where students grow and learn from each other's traditions. A school where diversity is a strength.

Warm and inspiring, All Are Welcome lets young children know that no matter what, they have a place, they have a space, and they are welcome in their school. Engaging lyrical text and bright, accessible illustrations make this book a must for every child's bookshelf, classroom and library.

Reviews for All Are Welcome

A celebration as much as it is a story! * Bookbairn * The book's message makes it applicable to any child and the icing on the cake is the colourful illustration filled with speech bubbles that display `Welcome' in many languages. Parents will love the educational element and the caring message, and I'm sure children will love trying to read new languages and repeat the phrase; ALL ARE WELCOME * Armadillo Magazine *
