This quirky yet charming picture book takes a very positive spin on being different.
One of the difficulties of growing up is not fitting in or feeling different. This book lovingly addresses these issues in a bright and positive way, allowing its readers to take heart and celebrate their difference.
Clichs about the clumsiness of a 'bull in a china-shop', or being 'as mad as a hatter' are neatly turned around to be very positive and desirable traits indeed. And remember, even the ugly duckling turns into a swan. So, don't think you are not fitting in, celebrate being different!
