"We are all alike...we all have hearts and brains.We are all different...we do not think or feel the same way."An important lesson -- for children, by children.WE ARE ALL ALIKE...WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT celebrates the multitude of differences in our society -- at a time when understanding tolerance and diversity have never been more important. Written by children for children, WE ARE ALL ALIKE reinforces multicultural and anti-bias learning and appreciation.

We are all different. We are a family."

Exploring our differences and similarities from a young age is one of the best ways to help children develop an appreciation for our cultural diversity. This colorful series promotes inclusivity as each book journeys around the globe to highlight different nuances among experiences we all ultimately share. Kids will enjoy the upbeat music and illustrations that celebrate these differences and provide an opportunity to learn about other cultures.

We are the same because we are all human beings. We are mammals, primates, and intelligent vertebrates, who are born, grow, change, and die. We are also the same because we are all different. We have thoughts, ideas, beliefs, talents, and dreams, but how we think and act makes us who we are. Children often feel that they need to be the same as everyone else. That is the main reason for unhappiness. Do we see our differences as reasons for judgment and fighting? How can we view the different ways of others as things to enjoy, rather than criticize? This book encourages children to honor their own uniqueness and that of others through new ideas and positive actions.

For reader 3-9... Young children are introduced to the wonderful world that lies beyond the borders of their own home, learning about how we are all alike...and different from each other at the same time. If we look at what we can see, we may be alike (two eyes, ten fingers, one nose) and different (height, build, hair color, skin tone) at the same time, but if we look at what we cannot see (our pleasures, our hopes, our dreams, and our enjoyment with each other), we find that we are all, under the skin, so to speak, pretty much alike. Beginning with family, and then moving outward to other people in our neighborhood and beyond, we see the great diversity in humanity. While it is easy to note our differences, just a bit more thought will reveal the many ways we are like one another.
