Noko visits a new town and is not welcomed by the villagers. He has travelled for a long time and needs some food but no one has any to share until he begins to make soup he says he has made for the king. Then each house adds something Noko needs to the pan. This is a good book to encourage discussions about inclusion and how we treat new people or strangers. The kindness and friendship comes through at the end. A good book for lower KS2 and KS1 children. The illustrations are very bold and abstract which children may enjoy. They could take inspiration from the images for their own artwork.
