James Davies
A playful friendship story about celebrating what makes someone unusual. Its comic dog, park setting, missing pets and rescue premise offer opportunities for shared laughter, anticipation and noticing how a difference can become a strength.

A visually varied introduction to human rights, best approached one spread at a time. Its short, simplified statements are supported by imaginative artwork, making abstract ideas available for conversation without relying on a conventional story.

Issa Watanabe
A visually led story about migration, courage and belonging, with no written narration to settle meaning. Its animals and expressive images invite readers to infer what leaving, travelling and arriving might involve.
Fiona Carswell

Justin Richardson
A gentle family story centred on two male penguins who care for an egg and raise Tango. Its main emphasis is belonging, parenting and adoption, with wider questions about what makes a family.
