About this ebook

When it comes to explaining physical, cultural and religious differences to children, it can be difficult to know where to begin. What Makes Us Unique? provides an accessible introduction to the concept of diversity, teaching children how to respect and celebrate people's differences and that ultimately, we are all much more alike than we are different. Additional questions at the back of the book allow for further discussion.
Child psychologist Dr. Jillian Roberts designed the Just Enough series to empower parents/caregivers to start conversations with young ones about difficult or challenging subject matter. Other books in the series deal with birth, death, separation and divorce. For more information, visit www.justenoughseries.com.

    Suitable for preschoolers, this addresses the ways we are unique: outside, inside, the way we move and communicate, personal likes and dislikes, family structures, and cultural heritage. It also states the basic needs we all share: to laugh, grow, learn, love and be loved. Engage kids in a discussion of the ways we are different and what we have in common.
