VOCÊ É IMPORTANTE

You are important explores in an inventive and intelligent way, with a captivating text, many perspectives to understand the world around us, but also to respect others – and ourselves – with all the differences that exist. The visual connections invite people to talk, ask questions and start debates around a book that, although aimed at early childhood, can appeal to all audiences.
In its simple and clear message, “You matter” (You matter) echoes a fight for change that transcends all borders (and all ages): the social movement Black Lives Matter of protest against racism. A fairer world is a better world for everyone, and that requires big changes, promoted by everyone – including you!
The wonderful illustrations reveal to children an interconnected universe in which we all play an important role: “Even if no one sees you clearly, following the wave, or swimming against it, coming first or last, you are important.”
