Welcoming a new week
With a brilliant and beautiful book
With a stunning cover
Gorgeous endpapers
Beautifully written lyrical prose
Illustrations filled with
A rainbow of diversity

A book to dive into
With little readers
And explore all the
Wonderful ways we are different

A book to inspire little minds
To imagine a world
Where we were all the same
Where there was no colour
Where all food tastes the same
Where we all speak the same language
Or no language at all

This vibrant picture book
With a colourful cast
Of diverse characters
From all walks of life
And all corners of our globe
Is the perfect way
To start talking to little ones
About inclusion, acceptance and kindness
Three things we need our children
To understand more than ever

Right now many grown ups
In the public eye
Are not very good examples
Of how to live in our wonderful world
Home to 195 countries
10 million colours and
6500 different languages
We need books that celebrate
Difference and diversity
More than ever

Books like this one
Should be in every classroom
Library and home

Books that make our children think
That ask them to imagine
What would our world look like
With no colours at all?
Of if everything in it
Were only one colour?

Uju Asika asks young readers
To imagine a world with only one face
Only one flavour

This book shines a light
On the things that make us
Who we are
That give us our identity
Our names
Our stories

There is so much to love
In this brilliant and beautiful book
A book that reminds us
That we live in a world
For everyone

Our world is amazing
And we are all welcome
We should treat everybody
With respect
With kindness and consideration

A World For Me and You
Offers practical ways that
Young people can show kindness
And offer help to others

This is a celebration of our world
Alive with colour
A celebration of our human family
All of us beautiful in our skin
A celebration of all the
Many kinds of faces all over the planet
And all the amazing expressions
We can make to share our
Thoughts and feelings
A celebration of our tastes and flavours
A celebration of our languages
The importance of our names
And of our stories
Stories matter
It is through our stories
That we learn about each other

“They help us understand that we are all unique
And we also have lots in common.
How many stories of people
From different backgrounds can you find
To read or listen to?”

This book is an absolute
Bundle of joy
The perfect picture book
To remind us all
That this wonderful world
We call home
Is an amazing place
Where Everyone Is Welcome
