Synopsis
Too often kids' feelings get ignored. This series helps children and adults accept and acknowledge their emotions. It also helps them distinguish between feelings and actions. Even more important, the stories give kids several ways to cope with feelings. They also allow parents and teachers to discuss other situations in a nonjudgmental way.
Everybody looks different. But different doesn't have to mean bad, ugly, scary or wrong.
This well-illustrated book helps young children understand some of the differences we see in everyday life. It answers questions without making value judgments, without embarrassing anyone.
Excellent for the parent or caregiver who wants to develop positive attitudes in children toward all kinds of people. This book also suggests how to teach children when and how it's appropriate to ask questions about the people around them.

From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 3 A collection of short descriptions of some people who are physically "different" from others. Each description contains a photograph of the person, a brief paragraph about how he or she is different, and a related question or activity, such as "Look at your parents and see if you can guess how tall you will grow to be." The subjects include a man with a beard, a heavy woman, a black man, a dwarf, and two handicapped men. The introductory note states that the book was written to help parents and teachers answer questions about differences and is meant to be a springboard to discussions. However, the variety of subjects selected is too broad and the explanations too simplistic. Questions about physical differences can be answered honestly without the aid of this book, and if one needs to explain about handicaps it is better to deal with them in more depth. Margaret C. Howell, Cameron Elementary School, Fairfax County, Va.
