Portrays everyday situations in which children see themselves as “different” in family life, preferences, and aptitudes, and yet, feel that being different is all right.
Why Am I Different?
- By Norma Simon
- Illustrated by Dora Leder
Portrays everyday situations in which children see themselves as “different” in family life, preferences, and aptitudes, and yet, feel that being different is all right.
A series of children speak about the ways in which they or their families are different, or about the individual aptitudes of other children in their class…The text is useful for suggesting the many kinds of differences that exist.
A book in the publisher’s Concept series, this is intended to help the very young develop a realistic self-image. The text and lively pictures are lighthearted explorations of a sober theme: differences in children which can make them feel inferior…it’s a terrific plug for individualism.
