What would you take? Imagine you were leaving for a new country and could bring only what would fit in a small suitcase. Which things would you choose to say to the world, "Hi there, this is met" In this picture, various children - inspired by their remarkable teacher - talk about what they'd bring with them if they could take only one suitcase to their new home: photographs, a favourite book, grandfather's beret. Which things do they love most? What best expresses who they are? At the end, the question is posed to the reader: "What would you take? Which things would say to the world, this is met". The book ends with a pop up suitcase, which the child can then fill with his or her favourite things.
