Bestseller

"Penfold and Kaufman have outdone themselves in delivering a vital message in today’s political climate." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“Celebrate a school community as a great common ground where families of all kinds connect and share in their children’s educational journey…. the book’s refrain of “All are welcome here” feels both deeply reassuring and almost radical in our polarized time.” —Publishers Weekly

“This is a must-read for pre-school and elementary classrooms everywhere.” – Trudy Ludwig, author of The Invisible Boy
