Reviews
"""This beautifully written book immediately encourages the reader to embrace their imagination ... The text beautifully describes different skin tones and facial features. The reader will learn about foods from other cultures and the abundant languages used worldwide ... This book would make an excellent addition to parents', teachers', and librarians' bookshelves. Its pages contain numerous discussion topics that may facilitate further exploration of others' ethnicities and cultures. Children will likely develop an understanding of others' differences, the importance of accepting them, how to express kindness, and how to celebrate all.""---- Children's Literature ""[A] beautifully inclusive book ... Well-illustrated and thoughtfully considered, this material teaches diversity and perspective, but in a deliberately vague way, which has value.""---- School Library Journal"
