We're the Same, We're Different and We All Belong is such a beautiful book to highlight that while we all have thing in common and things that are different. I like that it says that different does not equal weird.

The pictures in this book are absolutely beautiful and very engaging to young children. I am a 2nd grade teacher and right now we are doing informational writing about a friend. Students are going to interview each other and write about one another. I read this book to my class because it highlights great question sand information to truly get to know each other deeper than surface level. After reading we came up with questions to ask our friend to really get to know them.

This would be a great book to read at the beginning of the year or to compliment a social studies unit on diversity. I live in a very diverse area and this book is a great way to highlight how diverse we are and what we can learn from each other. If one does not live in a very diverse area, this book would be great to introduce students and young children to other ethnicities and understand that it doesn't matter what the color of our skin is, or what color our hair or eyes are, but what matters is who we are on the inside and the great qualities we all have within us.

I also really like the way it talked about the power of yet and that I can't do it yet, but that I can do hard things.

This is an excellent book to use as a teacher or as a parent of young children.

Thank you KayJay Miller for writing a beautiful book with engaging illustrations that teach children the importance of acceptance, diversity and that being different is a good thing.

Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book and give my honest review.
