Series Made Simple
This series explores the ways in which people are different and invites children to celebrate those differences. Full-page photographs are accompanied by two or three positive and affirming sentences per page. All of the pictures are portraits of kids or include children in happy and friendly ways, making them very relatable to the audience. At the end of each title there is a question to encourage further discussion or observation. VERDICT A good resource to help instill empathy and acceptance in little ones.
