This loving ode to our shared humanity is the perfect introduction to
conversations about identity and Anti-Racism.* "Will invite the book's
audience to grapple with themes of individuality, diversity,
universality, and what it means to be human." -- The Horn Book, starred
review"Loved it." -- Jacqueline Woodson, former Ambassador of Young
People's Literature
Presented as a thoughtful, poetic exchange between two characters -- who
don't realize they are thinking and asking the very same questions --
this beautiful celebration of our humanity and diversity invites readers
of all ages to imagine a world where there is no you or me, only we.If
the first step toward healing the world is to build bridges of empathy
and celebrate rather than discriminate, Why Am I Me? helps foster a
much-needed sense of connection, compassion, and love.
