  • Library Media Connection : Library Media Connection Reviews 2013 March/April
    These primary-aged books sparkle with colorful photos, smiling faces, and approximately 150 words per subject area. These books on differently-abled people, family units, appearances, and cultures will be a useful resource. Teachers will be able to extend the patterns from each book into their classroom lessons as questions encourage student participation. Beginning readers will enjoy the simple text and be helped by the repetition of words and phrases. Websites referenced can vary in quality from dead links to PBS Kids Go, to a fabulous children's site dealing with many kids' health topics. By stressing positive messages about our differences, the overall effect of the series is inclusive. Bigliography. Glossary. Websites. Index.

  • School Library Journal Reviews : SLJ Reviews 2012 April

    K-Gr 2—This series celebrates cultural, mental, physical, and familial differences young children might notice in others. The books have crisp, full-page color photos placed opposite one or two simple sentences. All of the titles have controlled vocabulary. Each one opens with a brief introductory spread. Cultures describes ethnic heritages found in America. Abilities shows children with physical and mental handicaps. Families covers multi-generational, foster, adoptive, same-sex, and step- and single-parent families. Look Different examines physical appearances (hair, skin color, dress, etc.). The children in the photos are usually smiling and immersed in activities. The books end with summary statements and glossaries, which are generally strong, but occasionally stumble ("Crowded" is defined as "lots of people"). Recommended for those needing diversity materials for young audiences.
