A perfect way to broach the concepts of difference and acceptance, with a BIG surprise ending! With all the warmth, charm and appeal of the beloved Eric Carle. The collage illustrations will also inspire your kids to create art & craft, and open up a world of imagination. This is a debut picture book from an exciting new talent.
