All Are Welcome – A Celebration of Belonging and Diversity!

Step into a classroom where every child belongs. All Are Welcome by Alexandra Penfold is a joyful, inclusive picture book that follows a group of children through a typical school day—where different cultures, languages and traditions are not just accepted but celebrated.

Through lyrical rhymes and vibrant illustrations, this heartwarming story reassures little ones that whether they wear patkas, hijabs, yarmulkes or caps, no matter where they come from or how they speak, they have a place. They are welcome.

This book is a powerful resource for helping young readers (ages 0–5) build empathy, celebrate differences, and feel confident about joining a new school community.

Why schools and parents love it:

• Promotes inclusion and empathy – Perfect for discussions on kindness, diversity and classroom values.
• Ideal for back-to-school or new starters – Reassures children that they belong, just as they are.
• Supports global citizenship goals – Aligns with multicultural and SEL curricula in early years education.
