It is a children's book I didn't read it but gave it away - they weren't impressed to the point of a special phone call.  Your child might love it we are all different.

My three year old likes this book (as she likes most new books). She finds Pokey Porcupine to be fascinating and she keeps repeating his name because she thinks it's funny. She's also very curious about the glue and glitter he puts in his quills.

After reading Just the Way I Am a few times I'm not quite sure I like the message or how it's presented. At a high-level I agree we should teach our children to acknowledge and accept our differences but taking excessive pride or highlighting and emphasizing differences between people just because they are different is not the message I want to communicate.

Pink Hair, Blue Hair by Jenna Lyn Field is a childrens book that teaches young ones to embrace diversity and appreciate that they are unique. It doesnt matter what you wear or what color your hair is. You are you and however you look, you should love being you. It also teaches children to appreciate the differences in those around us. The images are simplistic and the words are simple sentences perfect for an early reader. This was an easy read to share with Sophia and while she cant appreciate the message she loved the faces on each of the children. Copy provided by author, full review at caffeinated book reviewer.

I think my child should read books that feature pictures of children of all colors. Frequently too many children's books reflect children that all come from a singular ethnic background. But for my daughter I like to mix it up.

This is a fun book for all children.  It raises awareness of traditions from different cultures.  With older children you can look at themes behind the custom.

My daughter is 20 months and I bought this for her for Christmas and she has never really played with it.  I was really shocked because she LOVES, LOVES, LOVES Elmo.  Figure that one out??? Your kid may like it though, its really cute and is sturdy.  I am still shocked that she won't play with it. Buy your kid the little cheaper version first.

We're all different, and yet the same on the inside. Rita's message is clear and entertaining for children of all ages. Beautifully illustrated, this book is a joy to experience! And the proceeds go to a worthy cause; a win-win. What could be better?

This product is recommended for kids and toddlers who love to hear other kids sings songs. My daughter enjoys hearing other kids singing. Its personal taste whether it is for you or not. Listen to the sample :)

This book teaches kids that you should be happy with who you are and that everyone is different.  It's a great lesson for all kids especially in today's society where kids are comparing themselves to everyone else.  A wonderful book for all ages!

Our son, who is almost 3, is beginning to understand that our family is a little different than other kids. His father and I have never lived together since he was born, so he hasn't known a different arrangement. But he has begun to ask more questions about whether daddy will sleep over or will mommy come visit when he's at daddy's. This book is remarkable in that it depicts many of our realities -- right down to that dad has a rocking chair for the little kid and mom has a cushy chair. Written without any saccharine or over-wrought explanations. Just clear communication that the kid gets to have two similar but different and all-loving homes. I also like that the child is gender-neutral. "Alex" can be either a girl or boy, both by name and appearance.

I Love Being Different is a gorgeously illustrated book of poems for children that celebrates individuality and diversity. The rhymes flow beautifully and encourage children to embrace their unique qualities, interests and creativity, as well as to acknowledge feelings of sadness and self-doubt.
Elena Paige's series of children's poems is a delightful and unique resource that helps children navigate their emotional landscape and the sometimes confusing world around them.

It's a delightful way to tell your little one how much you love him/her.  I told a friend who has a daughter about the book and she simply substitutes the word daughter for son.

First, I wish only parents would review toys. They are the only ones who really know if a toy is good or not. I'm sure one could be disappointed with this toy if you gave it as a gift, and the toddler didn't pay much attention to it...it doesn't talk or anything, so the other gifts would seem more impressive. Over time is when a toy shows it's value. We got this puppy for our fist child at age 18 months. He loved dragging it around. It doesn't always stay up, but it isn't like it is off balance, it is just pulled by a toddler. They drag toys every-which-way. Though it doesn't do much, our son loved it too much to share with our first daughter, so we got her a pink one. Daugher #2 came along, and the same thing happened. We now have 3 of these puppies. Each child (6,5,3) all still play with them. They pretend they are walking them, washing them, putting them to bed...not too many toys can last the test of time, but this one has. There's no gimic, but it is a refreshing way to see your children use their imaginiation to care for a, seemingly, living thing.

It only repsonds as if one child is using it.  If you have more than once child, it doesn't take much for them to figure out something isn't right.

At first glance this children's book is a lesson about the differences between big and small. At the same time it is a lesson about diversification. We are all the same inside even if we are apparently different on the outside. The story is simple, sweet and surprising and the illustrations are simple yet poignant. My son read it over and over as a child and wrote a similar book when he grew up.
