Loved it!

The theme is so pertinent nowadays. No matter in what place in the world, we are living this general intolerance with other people for any kind o things: color, personal appearance, disability visible or not, politics, ideology the reasons are never ending. We must be able to have literature of easy understanding and that might be able to captivate children because they’re are the most affected today an tomorrow.
Loved the illustrations as well =)

A book that celebrates all kinds of differences -- shape/size/ability -- and teaches that it is good to stand up for yourself/others when someone is unkind.

One of a series of "I choose" books by the author. Others include calming anger, kindness, trying again, calming anxiety, respectfulness, happiness, helping others, recycling, and empathy. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08WHQ4L5...
