In the inspirational new book, What Makes You Different Makes You Special, Olivia Pineiro celebrates how our unique traits can become our greatest strengths. The book, illustrated by Paul Sosa, follows Lucas, a young bat who is embarrassed by his loud voice and can't learn to fly. But when his family needs his help more than ever, he discovers that the very thing that made him feel different is the one thing that can save them all.
Together with Lucas, you and your kids will go on an exciting cave adventure as you learn in full color to:
- celebrate your own one-of-a-kind differences and strengths;
- find the courage to overcome fear and use your unique voice;
- understand the importance of helping your family and community; and
- see that what makes you different doesn't make you less, it makes you essential.
What Makes You Different Makes You Special is an empowering picture book perfect for:
- children ages 4-8;
- parents, grandparents, teachers, and librarians;
- classroom story times and discussions about self-esteem, courage, and inclusion; and
- holiday or Christmas gift-giving, birthdays, back-to-school, or any occasion for an encouraging story.
Through dark caves and deep forests, this thrilling animal adventure delivers a powerful, unforgettable message: this world needs your gifts, especially the unique ones that make you special.
