Summary Every morning Uncle Tobias goes fishing. Sometimes he is joined by two little boys. Together they spend the day moving from one place to another - from the beach, to the bridge and the mangroves on the outskirts of the city - and back to the edge of the city. Along the way they meet other friends of Uncle Tobias - Auntie Ruby and Old Isaac - and listen to stories about Uncle Tobias' ancestors and other times. You and Me: Our place is about difference - old and new cultures that exist side by side - but more importantly it is about sameness. About people enjoying ordinary things and accepting each other -and especially about children who move freely between cultures.
