An evocative story of hope that reminds us everyone has a story to tell, wherever they come from. A beautiful companion to The Suitcase from the creator of Frank and Bert.
Praise for The Suitcase:'This beautifully illustrated and wise, gentle tale of tolerance and kindness for fellow humans resonates deeply.' - Khaled Hosseini, author of The Kite RunnerShortlisted for Oscar's Book Prize 2020Shortlisted for the 2020 CILIP Kate Greenaway MedalLong ago, the animals befriended a strange-looking creature who arrived from nowhere with a suitcase containing a teacup and a photograph of home. The stranger soon found sanctuary and calm. Now, there is a new mysterious stranger who they are sure is nothing but a . . . thief! It's only when everything goes wrong that they realise that things may not be as simple as they think . . .
A lovingly crafted picture book that challenges unconscious bias with its simplicity and a heartfelt message - children and their parents will love, and learn from, The Teacup.
