About The Book
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.
