Publishing in the Walker Studio imprint, this witty, magnificently-illustrated book plays with the idea of "sorting".

The animal kingdom, modes of transport, musical instruments, art and architectural movements, and even the clouds in the sky...anything and everything can be sorted into groups! Framed by a charming narrative about a father and son, this is a book about categories; on a journey into town, a boy called Arvo explores the many ways in which we classify the world around us, to fascinating – and often charming – effect.

One of a Kind marks Neil Packer’s debut as an author-illustrator, following his extraordinary artwork for Peter Frankopan’s The Silk Roads. With a witty text and breathtaking pictures, this story deserves its title: a true original by a remarkable talent.
