Vive La Difference! What If? by Sandra Magnamen

What makes you different makes you amazing!

After we're born, the first thing we have to learn is that we are now--a separate being!

As we grow, we learn that we are not only separate--we are onlies, each one of us unique in all the world. It's quite a concept to get used to!

And that is the message in Sandra Magnamen's latest little book, What If?: What makes you different makes you amazing! (Sourcebooks/Jabberwocky, 2019). Magnamen uses various familiar animals in her simply drawn concept board book to point out all the ways we are different. We are all one of a kind!

And all in all that's a good thing! It would be a shame to all be the same. BORING!

The mouse is, well, quiet as a mouse, and sometimes quietude is exactly what is needed to get the job done.

If you like to make some noise like a barrel of monkeys, your joie de vivre helps your friends let go and have some fun! Each one of us is a new and different surprise to get to know. And that means that our world is full of surprises!

Vive La Difference! Be yourself, your best self....

'Cause today is the perfect day to be exactly and totally YOU!
