Why nobody likes the crow!

Reach for this book when your child starts noticing that some people or groups are treated unfairly based on their appearance, or if they are struggling with the pain of social exclusion. This gentle, philosophical story follows a young child who attempts to understand why everyone seems to dislike the crow, using the bird's experience as a powerful metaphor for human prejudice and racism. It is particularly helpful for parents who want to move beyond simple definitions of kindness and explore the deeper 'why' behind systemic biases. Appropriate for elementary schoolers, the narrative provides a safe, inquisitive space to discuss justice and empathy. By framing the conversation through a child's interaction with nature, it validates a child's natural sense of fairness while offering a framework to confront complex social realities. Parents will appreciate its thoughtful, reflective tone that encourages children to look past stereotypes and see the individual.
