Sometimes We Look Different
Prepare your kid to be the change for the next generation.. Here's the story behind the This book was written by a mom of two cuties born only 1.5 years apart. Her second child was born with a large mark called congenital melanocytic nevus covering a large part of her face. The parallels of having a child born without and then one born with a visible difference inspired the creation of this book. As a person who never had to face the world looking differently than her peers it was eye opening to experience the stares, comments, and interactions that came with a visible difference. The purpose of this book is to bridge that gap taking a very kid-friendly approach to explaining visible differences, kindness, and what to do when you see someone who looks differently than you.

Why we being different is ok
Every child needs to learn that we are different. This will make them be aware that it's ok to be different, and just because someone is different from us, it doesn't give us the right to bully them or make fun of them.
I think this is the most important part that all kids who are going to to school, church, mosque, etc should learn.
I do recommend this book to all parents who have kids ages 3 to 8 years. Since it's not written in a story manner, it might be difficult for some other parents to keep their kids engaged (below 3 years) in the book unless you have mastered the art of making you kid listen to you when reading regardless of the content. The illustrations will surely entertain kids less than 3 years and below.

There are a bajillion reasons people are different. It is our differences that make us special.

Adorable!!
This is such a cute way to bring up such an important topic! The illustrator did such a good job incorporating a variety of physical differences. (Also, I loved the inclusion of the author's daughter before and after her surgeries.) Beautifully done!
