Michael Foreman’s gentle story of an African boy making friends in a big city is filled with love and hope, and a sense that the power to make the world a better place is in our hands. Adam loves his new home but misses the faraway place where he used to live, so draws bright pictures of African animals and pins them to the wall. When it snows, he builds snow hippos, lions and an elephant, other children coming to help, and then when he starts school he and his new friends transform the landscape again, this time by planting flowers. A final beautiful image shows every balcony, pavement and roof in the grey city bristling with plants and greenery. The words are almost superfluous, Foreman’s watercolour images tell the story so beautifully. ~ Andrea Reece
