Why Readers Love My Bestseller

"This book is a perfect way to introduce diversity to small children. It is so well written and you can tell that the author is writing from experience"

"Absolutely love the book. As a Childcare Professional I strive to present a multicultural, inclusive environment, so that each child can see a representative of themselves in media and print, so they can embrace their individuality and differences."

"Great illustrations and wonderfully written story about embracing differences. Shows children that not to judge a book by its cover and that there is more that meets the eye. A great book to help children to unlearn the stereotypes and be more open-minded about others, especially those with disabilities."

"I highly recommend this easy to read story for all children. As an educator and coach, this story supports the message we want children to hear – Everyone is unique and deserves love and respect...You are appreciated and valued!"

"It’s no surprise this book has won awards. It’s a great message about the value of our differences. It mentions various ways we all differ from each other. It ends with a reminder that none of us should feel sad about the ways we’re different from others. The artwork is high-quality."
