Summary

The world is full of people who are a little different in one way or another。
Our uniqueness is what makes us stand out and makes us who we are。
You can not judge someone on something you can see or even on the things you can not see。

We are all special。 We are all unique。 We are all 'different; not less'。

A collection of true stories about inspiring people and famous figures from around the world, all who are physically or neurologically diverse。

Reflective of our diverse society, this anthology features figures including Simone Biles, Naoki Higashida, Temple Grandin, Warwick Davis, Sudha Chandran, Stephen Hawking and Frida Kahlo。

I rarely leave reviews but this book is。。。 superb! A great book for children (and adults!) - a great way to feel more included in society, a great way to explain that being different doesn't mean being less capable。 The illustrations are also beautiful。 We need more books like that!

What a beautiful book!! It’s so rare in the society we live in, to empower those who are ‘different’ but this book does it so perfectly! Celebrating everything that makes these incredible people the people that they are!! The book is just magic and incredible!

Calling all teachers/school librarians! Make this book available and accessible to your students。 This is a wonderful book that highlights 40 neurologically and physically diverse people and what they've managed to accomplish despite their challenges。 (And the illustrations are stunning!)
