What Is The Story?
He stands out from the crowd. He has not been taught to be like everyone else. You encourage his interests and celebrate his uniqueness.
When he is around children who are in public school, he can be picked on and excluded just because he is unique. We have all been there are homeschooling moms. We are sitting on a park bench, watching our children in the playground and next thing we know, they are being teased.
This is a book to help your child understand and feel special about himself.
One of a Kind is a marvelous picture book that celebrates the uniqueness and gifts of one young boy who hears the music in the world around him.
He feels alone and excluded until he discovers other children just like him.
This is a simple by powerful story of how every child needs to remain true to themselves.
As a homeschooling parent, part of your responsibility lies in helping your children to discover their passions and celebrate their uniqueness.
It may be lonely sometimes, but your children will find others who value them, with your help, and in the end your child will reach for the impossible and strive for the stars.
Who Is This Book Good For?
Not only is this a wonderful picture book for young children, my teenagers enjoyed the message as well.
If you only purchase one picture book this year, I urge you to choose this one!
But first, you need to get the book!
From The Publisher
Meet a pogo-dancing, punk-rock-loving kid who loves to express himself in his own unique way. His clothes, hairstyle, music, and just the way he hears the world, all set him apart. Not everyone understands him, but he likes being one of a kind–even though it’s lonely sometimes. Fortunately, it’s a wide world out there, and if he looks around a kid is sure to find other one-of-a-kinds with common interests.
