All the praise for "We're Different, We're the Same"! This book brings together all of the famous Sesame Street characters from my childhood. The characters parade around the street with friends of all sizes, shapes, and ethnicities, showing us that we are all the same inside despite our obvious physical differences. It teaches us how our differences make us who we are and that we should celebrate our uniqueness. The pictures are vibrant and lively, and it is fun for little ones to spot their favorite Sesame Street characters on every page. This book is a must read for all ages, and is an especially good read aloud for younger children when learning about diversity.
