It needs to be shared, discussed and shared again to help everyone understand the issues and challenges migrants face" * Red Reading Hub * "a powerful and topical message is dealt with in a sensitive child-friendly way" * Read It, Daddy! * "This might look like a picture book. It might look as though it's only for children but there's a message in there that we should all take to heart" * The Bookbag * "a highly poignant story about the plight of migrants, pitched at a younger audience, in words and images that they can relate to" * Picture Books Blogger * From the Author Born in Paris, Barroux spent much of his childhood in North Africa.
