One of these is not like that other--and that's great! This gently
subversive picture book points out-- and celebrates!-- the differences
between subjects.
Barney Saltzberg's hilarious and delightfully direct text and simple
illustrations introduce children to the concept and splendor of
inclusiveness, through recognizing who or what's different on each
spread and celebrating the unity as it is.
For example, the reader sees three cows and an elephant accompanied by
the text One of these is not like the other, turn the page... and all
four animals take part in an exuberant conga line and say that's just
fine with us!
In a series of similar examples children are encouraged to notice both
the similarities and differences between characters and celebrate both.
Barney Saltzberg's picture book is a pointed and timely tribute to the
power of inclusivity and as well as a riotous read-aloud.
