Talk to childrenDevelop and harness your child' curiosityAddress questions about diversity with  confidence

This revolutionary series, written by two child psychologists, provides the perfect platform to explore a broad range of family issues and questions that children have as they grow up and try to make sense of the world around them.

Each illustrated spread poses important, commonly-asked questions around diversity and cultural identity, such as "Why are people different colours?", "How come she is in a wheelchair?"
and "Why does Grandma have wrinkles?",  which help children to discuss their feelings and understand others as they become aware of people of different ages, cultures and appearance. Includes explanations and advice for parents and carers throughout.
