GeneralDear Parents,
This story enables us to have a dialogue with our child on important topics such as: supporting people in need, sympathizing with them, welcoming strangers or newcomers with kindness and affection, and helping them adapt to their new environment.
It is a story about home, and what it means to us: is a home a building with a garden or is it a place in which our loved ones live and where we build relationships and memories with the people around us?
This is a story about trust, and about the barriers that we put around us to exclude others when we are suspicious of them and when we hold on to our prejudices and stereotypes.
