Thank you Walker books, Aus, for an advance proof copy of this delightful exploration of what makes us human.  Stitch and his friend Henry are innocently oblivious of how cruelly people can treat each other.  Difference, Stitch learns, is PART of the human condition, not something through which to persecute others.  I am very keen to find the right reader at my school.  (It would make a heart-warming short film, in the style of Time Burton). WHO are the real monsters?
