The Yellow-Lighted Bookshop

A beautiful, moving and sensitively told picture book about language barriers, communication and a very young child’s immigrant experience. When Ronnie moves to a new house, in a new country, he’s excited to make friends. But when he introduces himself to everyone at nursery he gets his words all mixed up, and the others can’t help but giggle. Ronnie misses home and laughing with his old friends. But new doesn’t stay that way for long.
