A heartwarming tale of empathy and acceptance from the award-winning, New York Times bestselling duo.

Milo Imagines the World is a warm and richly satisfying story about a little boy with a big imagination who learns that you can't know anyone just by looking at them. As Milo rides the train through the bustling city with his older sister, he observes the faces of his fellow passengers and imagines the lives they lead. Perhaps the boy in bright white trainers lives in a castle with a moat and a butler?

But when the boy disembarks at the same stop as Milo and joins the same queue, Milo realizes that appearances can be deceiving. Despite their different backgrounds, the two boys share a profound connection: they are both visiting their mothers in prison.

Matt de la Peña's evocative prose and Christian Robinson's vibrant illustrations create a powerful, thought-provoking tale that will resonate with anyone who has ever travelled on public transport. Milo Imagines the World is a testament to the bonds of family love, even in the most challenging circumstances, and a gentle reminder that we are all more alike than we are different.
