award-winning author-illustrator Christian Robinson is all about seeing
the world from different points of view, and the perfect entry point

The first to go and the last.
You matter.

around the world are deftly and empathetically explored – from a pair
of bird-watchers to the pigeons they’re feeding, from the hugest
dinosaur to the tiniest fly.

connected and that everyone matters.
