Year 1 - You matter by Christian Robinson

In this full, bright, and beautiful picture book, many different perspectives around the world are deftly and empathetically explored—from a pair of bird-watchers to the pigeons they’re feeding. Young readers will be drawn into the luminous illustrations inviting them to engage with the world in a new way and see how everyone is connected, and that everyone matters.

 

Justin thinks, ‘it is important that everyone is equal because we all need to care about things and have the same opportunities because we all have our own lives and can do anything we want to.’

 

Harry says, ‘when things get hard, we need to keep trying and be resilient like our values.’

 

Sadie agrees, ‘it’s okay if we are all different and some of us are better at things than others. We should help our friends so that we can all do it.’
