Page by page, we experience a day in the lives of two boys and their families – one from inner city Sydney, Australia and the other from a small, remote village in Morocco.

These worlds couldn’t be further apart, yet with the showing of the parallel lives of the two families, we see a simple truth. We are the mirror of each other.

We are so blessed at our school to have children who speak a range of languages. If your child would like to bring a book from their first language into class the teachers would be more than happy to share it with the rest of the class.
