I am Just Like You
by Kelly Scrivener


This cheerful, positive story tells us of a little girl named Emily who appears to be different. But is she? Or, is Emily just like you? The story encourages preschool and primary aged children to see others in a different light. Through easy to understand examples of activities that many of us participate in, children can discover they are much the same regardless of their abilities. Meant for reading aloud by parents and educators of young children, this book promotes discussions of acceptance, kindness, and understanding of those who may appear different from ourselves.
