5 - 8 years. There will be times when you walk into a room and no one there is quite like you. There are many reasons to feel different. Maybe it's how you look or talk, or where you're from; maybe it's what you eat, or something just as random. It's not easy to take those first steps into a place where nobody really knows you yet, but somehow you do it. This book reminds us that we all feel like outsiders sometimes and how brave it is that we go forth anyway. And that sometimes, when we reach out and begin to share our stories, others will be happy to meet us halfway. Hardcover. 32 pages.

Abigail ★★★★★

I wasn’t sure my son would sit through a book about feeling different, but he was glued to the pages. The hardcover is sturdy and the illustrations are gorgeous.

Julian ★★★★★

My daughter asked to read it three nights in a row, which never happens. The pages have a nice weight to them and the illustrations really capture that feeling of being the odd one out. It's sparked some good conversations about why everyone's different.

Hazel ★★★★★

My son sat quietly through the whole story, which never happens—the hardcover pages feel nice and sturdy for little hands.
