“This book has no words which is cool, because I’ve never read a book without words before. I didn’t like that there were some mean people in the book. I like how the drawings are like cartoons. My favourite picture is the one with the dad walking with his daughter—they look so happy. Kids would like this book because they’d learn not to be mean to other people.”

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Nyal. We agree that this book has a very important message for everyone.
