The title of this book, No Matter What . . . We All Belong, is such an important message and needs to be shared with everyone. This is such an inclusive book and I think most children will see themselves somewhere in the beautiful illustrations which also have some sparkly touchy parts too.
We're all special and WE ALL BELONG. Yes we do because everyone is important. This book is perfect for young children and a lovely way to discuss belonging and welcoming others. Well done Little Tiger Publishers for this clever, important book.

This wonderful board book combines peep-through pages throughout and an irresistibly, squishy shiny rainbow at the end, when delivering this crucial message to young children. Its comforting message, that we all have equal value, no matter what our differences, is shared through simple rhyming language, making it very accessible for all. No matter what you look like, where you live or who your parents are, YOU belong - just as you are!
This is a book which will be read over and over again by adults to children and then is sure to be chosen by children themselves due to the wonderful colourful illustrations and message which will draw them in. It is wonderful discussion starter in a preschool room when looking at ways in which we are the same and unique .
Becky Davies and Fernando Martin have done an amazing job at simplifying a complex topic for very young children. We spent a long time studying all of the animals in the illustrations and comparing how they were all unique as well. A joyful read leading to precious time with little ones. Thank you.
