“Shows how the tide can turn if everyone lends a hand to help and acts with kindness!”

“Hollis Kurman and Barroux show how hope emerges from need and what is possible when people treat each other with kindness.”

“For hope and more love for all those people who have to leave home and travel far, where there are different customs and a language they do not understand.”

“Friendliness is the order of the day.”

“a wonderful picture book about a warm welcome (not only) for refugees.”

“(…) has a permanent place on our bookshelf (…) it is absolutely not about our current pandemic or Covid but to me, it matters never to lose sight of friendliness.”

“In my opinion, a very valuable children’s book that should be used as a topic in kindergartens and schools.”

“I find it very interesting, especially for the kids, to show that it is not a matter of course that the refrigerator is full, that you have so many toys or clothes and you just have a roof over your head. There are so many people and children who don’t have all of this …”

“And what better way to learn to count than with friendliness and humanity?”

“that having a home not only includes a safe roof over one’s head, but also the feeling of belonging and being welcomed.”
