A Penguin Like Me by Marcus Pfister
5.0
As an Early Childhood Educator I am always seeking out fresh new books to encourage conversations around acceptance, inclusion and diversity.
A Penguin Like Me brings lightness and beauty to such heavy topics.
The world seems so divided recently about what is appropriate to discuss with children but the reality is that children have valid fears and worries about fitting in, acceptance and representation. This book touches upon learning differences, sexuality, appearances, and more in a beautiful way! The author talks about each penguins skills and strengths without ever labeling the Penguin.
What a beautiful way to ignite conversations with children!
