This books follows a family on a fun day out and the children notice that everyone at the event is having fun laughing but look completely different. They have different hair, body sizes/lengths, skin complexions and more. It shows them that you should always be kinds and caring.

Children often have questions and are curious about people they may perceive as different.This is a great book to introduce, even though we are all very different, if you look hard we are also very similar.

This book does a great job teaching children that we are all the same and different at the same time. Children learn it's okay to be the same or different, but we need to treat everyone the same no matter the similarities or differences among children and adults. Children learn to treat others the way they want to be treated because we all have feelings and we need to respect every human being.
