This relatable book is a mythical fiction story of humankind and how we are all one. It talks about how we are all different but all go together such as some people are grandparents some people are mothers But we all make up one kind. I love the spirit of this book and how it brings a positive vibe to our world. Media: watercolor
I found this book/song really off-putting. I don't know if it the religious message or just the cheesy "we're all the same" message. It just made me roll my eyes. The end picture of everyone in the park sitting together happily was way too sappy. The illustrations were nice, very flowy and happy.

I would not use this in curriculum, but it could be used in learning about songs turned into books.
This book is about how we should accept and love everyone and how we are all the same. It is a great concept for children to read and understand about.
A book that can used to highlight that we are one and basically all the same. The illustrations were nice. The book seemed inspirational with slight religious undertones. Might be nice to read this too much younger kids.
This is a book about everyone in the world and how we are all humans and should all love one another. This book comes with a cd and it would be nice to play it aloud to students for a change. The book has nice illustrations in it and is really colorful.
A book with a religious message that tells us we are one and we are the same. No matter how different we think we may be, we are actually very much alike. Although this book does have a religious message to it, it can still be read in a classroom to teach children you are just like everyone else. We may look different and act different but are more alike than you think.
