Acknowledging that what makes us the same and different is
not a new concept. Students have sorted shapes in primary math lessons by
attributes and created patterns using those different attributes for as long as
I’ve been teaching. This book
acknowledges differences in a very positive light, with admiration for the
differences and ways that each of us is special. Some examples: But I can’t drink the way you
do. I can’t climb as high as you. I can’t hide as well as you (with an
illustration of a zebra in front of a black and white striped wall). To name a
few examples and my favorite: I love stories. So do you. A universal truth.
