Such a wonderful book for children about diversity and how it can positively impact us rather than make us bitter and hateful. I honestly think a fair few of adults could stand to benefit from this book themselves. I mean, how are we supposed to teach children acceptance, empathy, understanding and compassion if the adults being the role model themselves don't have it or don't understand it. This was such a refreshing book to be honest, it talks about the real stuff without making it too heavy for the intended audience (children). It's definitely one I'll have to add to my list to buy for my own collection and support because my god where were books like these when I was a kid?  We need more!
