Book cover

Author and publisher: Melanie Walsh 

Summary: This book introduces the readers to patterns of comparing children’s uniqueness like “Arthur’s nose turns up. Agnes’s nose tuns down. But they both like the smell of chocolate cake.” Through colourful illustrations of children’s typical appearances of eyes, hair, skin, legs and noses, this book will support children to see that they also have so much in common.
