Description
A deeply moving, vitally important picture book encouraging empathy and kindness.
Somewhere in this world, there is someone just like you,
who finds the same things funny and who laughs the way you do.
Have you ever stopped to think that there might be someone out there who is just like you? And if they needed you, would you help them?
Helen Docherty's lyrical rhyming text is perfectly matched by David Roberts' stunning, thoughtful illustrations, as the two combine to make a picture book that is as necessary as it is beautiful.

Helen was born and grew up in a small town called Weymouth, on the south coast of England. Her family was from Wales, and she inherited from them a love of stories. As a child, she spent most of her time either reading or writing, and from an early age she started making books with her own stories and pictures in them. Helen is the author of the gorgeous picture book You Can Never Run Out of Love, illustrated by Ali Pye.
David Roberts has illustrated many children's books, including the Questioneers series, The Cook and the King, and Bathe the Cat. He lives in London where, when not drawing, he likes to make hats.
