New York Times best-selling author Robie H. Harris helps
preschoolers understand what makes us who we are -- from our height to
our hair, from the shade of our skin to our eyesight.
Join Nellie, Gus, baby Jake, and their parents at Funland as they go on
rides, watch performers, and play games along with many other children
and grown-ups. As they enjoy their excursion, they -- and young readers
-- notice that people are the same as one another in lots of ways, and
different in lots of ways too. Accessible, humorous, family-filled
illustrations; conversations between Gus and Nellie; and straightforward
text come together to help children realize why it's important to treat
others the way they want to be treated and the way you want to be
treated -- whether a person is a lot like you or different from you, a
good friend or someone you have just met or seen for the first time.
