Bright, attractive pages and friendly text scattered with questions and invitations make this book a great way to start children thinking about who they are and how they fit into our world. One double page spread follows Anisha throughout her day, from getting up to school, playtime and home life, concluding, ‘Can you draw some pictures of your day?’ ; there are pages on feelings, on clothes and food – what’s good to eat and why; and a page to show how what we can do changes as we grow up.
Children are encouraged to complete scenes with colourful stickers of both words and images. An excellent and inclusive first book. ~ Andrea Reece
This brightly colored information book is a fun and interactive way for children to learn about themselves and the world around them. Learn about human diversity (skin color, hair color, eyes, tastes etc), about different emotions a person can feel, about daily routines, about different types of families and loved ones and about their body.
