What does ‘home’ mean to you?
To Kasey, home is a place of belonging and community.
When a horrible message appears in their neighbourhood, Kasey is determined that everyone should see the beauty of their multi-cultural community and the role that we can play in helping each other’s houses feel like home.
Early independent readers will love the range of characters, brought to life by illustrator Marian Dominguez, who live around Kasey and be inspired by Kasey’s plan.
We Are Home allows children to explore themes of race, belonging and community in the safe space of a heart-warming story.
