In honour of #empathyday ✨ we want to share STEP INTO MY SHOES! 👟

Can stepping into her mum’s shoes help Matou understand her? A delightful story about empathy in which a little girl takes the expression “to step into someone’s shoes” literally.

It’s Empathy Day so here are some beautiful words from Patrice Lawrence, a quote in We’ve Got This:

“It makes you think about… the people we don’t see, even though they’re very much there, who are trying to survive, trying to push their roots down, trying to exist.” #EmpathyDay
