Our Thoughts
A wonderful book about self acceptance and love. We are all different in our own ways and that’s what makes us special and sets us apart from the crowd. It’s so important that our children know this so that they can learn to accept their differences and grow to love them – as well as being accepting off other people’s differences. A very well written rhyming book with the most adorable illustrations of Zippy and his friends.
