The book is about how to stick to yourself and be unique. It tells the children that their own personalities make them different and unique. It encourages children to be themselves, have their own feelings and values. It is okay not to be the same with other people. Children under the age of 5

could benefit from this book, since they might be struggling with their own identity and how everyone else is different at one point or another. The author did full-color illustrations, which make the book looks delightful for children, especially small ones.
Recommended for children under the age of 5.

This is standard and typical fare about being yourself. It’s been done before, and will be done again. Over all it’s nice. It has a Jamie Lee Curtis feel, but sometimes the rhymes come out harsh. I believe this to be because of how the illustrator highlighted certain words and phrases. It’s

beautiful, but that emphasis on a strong word may not be in the rhyming pattern therefor throwing it off. This story is quite nice, but not destined to become a classic.
