This book is about how children are so different, they are different colors, thier hair is different, they are different colors and even their laughs are different. This is a really great book for young children because they dont always realize people are different. I could use this book to introduce differences, and I would do a unit on multiculture. The story is a very good story that talks about how all the colors of the earth representing children. This book talks about skin color and hair types such as a brown bear, the golden grass of the savanna, and the pink sand of the beach. This book talks about the good in all people without drawing attention to anyone in particular. I really liked this book, because this story talks about being different. A lot of the times when you hear about different types of people the story puts down another type of people, however this story does not and I really like that. I would use this book for variety of reason such as: a student being picked on for his/her looks, a class of a wide variety of students, or as a history lesson. This book incorporates immigration without coming out and saying it. This book can be used to talk about all the different types of people that come to America. no reviews | add a review

I felt this story was a creative way of introducing the subject of diversity. The illustrations were very captivating especially for a young audience.
Classroom ideas for this book or topic could include a unit on diversity and immigration. Also students could make collages of different colors of different items that represent different. For example yellow or golden for the color of wheat.
