I absolutely love reading this book to my niece. And she loves having it read to her. She especially likes the lunch squishing part, but the lesson is also fantastic. I highly recommend this to anyone trying to teach empathy and kindness to the kids in their lives.

What a fun book to let children know that they are smart and special just as they are. They do not need to copy anyone else.

My Pre-K class and I love this book. We had it in hebrew and i was thrilled to find it in english on Amazon. We read it many times and it was a great springboard for discussions on emotions, inclusion and friendship. It is very cleverly written and a great read.

Very good book to read to the bullied children

Brilliant book about differences: how we perceive differences, how we are met by those who see us as different, and how blind we can be to how we ourselves treat those we see as different. Unfortunately, the spine of the book was torn when I received it; no plastic covering on the book when it was sent, just placed inside a non-padded envelope.

This book is perfect for helping kids be receptive to difference.

I read this book many times, when I was a child. I could get so lost in beautiful drawings and this one especially drew me in, though the drawings are very dark and depressing at times (I found that children are much more sensitive to these kind of things than grown-ups at times). [The story is about an animal that looks and behaves differently from all the other animals and is therefore looked down upon, until it meets an animal who also looks different from everybody else. At first the little 'Something Else' is very mean to the creature and wants it to go away. But then he realizes that this strange creature just needs a friend, like he himself does. I like that part a lot, because Something Else doesn't meet someone who looks like him and then they hang out with each other, but someone completely different, so he has to be open to the new and the unfamiliar and not to act like the ones who oppose him, because he is different.] The moral of the story is to learn to be welcoming to people who don't look like you, because they also need to be loved, like you do.

A little creature named Something Else is rejected and made to feel bad by everyone. I call that bullying. Everything changes when a creature similar to Something Else shows up on his doorstep. But instead of treating the Something with the kindness he was never shown - he promptly rejects him. When he realizes he has caused the same pain and sadness - he charges after his new friend to begin an amazing friendship. It ends with a cute surprise when something Weird shows up allowing both of them to embrace yet another different looking friend. As an elementary school counselor, I'm still learning how to fine tune this book with the students. I just started using it this past year and have been mostly using it to talk about differences. But we also bring up friendship and bullying. I love hearing kids' reactions to this book.
