Review:
'The pictures in [this volume], innocent, bright and sympathetic, are well realised, and there are instructions for teachers and parents on the use of the book.' -- Books for Keeps 20030701 'This picture-led book is a good introduction to the issue of racism; what it means to be the victim or the perpetrator, how subtle racism can be, and how unfair it is to judge someone by the colour of their skin. A useful introduction to the topic, particularly for classroom use.' -- Evening Echo 20030329 'The book explores the issue of racism and deals with children's concerns in a sensitive and reassuring way.' -- Child Education 20030703
