A poetic book that emphasizes the importance of each kid's life. Written from mother to son, this is a great book for parents to read to their children to help them understand that they matter in this world no matter what they look like. However, due to the nature of the book, reading this in a classroom setting may be confusing for the kids since it reads as a lullaby. This can still be used to emphasize the importance of accepting everyone and implement the idea that everyone is equal.
