Book Description | Perfect for the youngest readers, this board book adaptation of the acclaimed Shades of People celebrates the diversity of everyday life. Cocoa, tan, rose, and almond--people come in lots of shades, even in the same family. This exploration of one of our most noticeable physical traits pairs simple text with vibrant photographs. At school, at the beach, and in the city, diverse groups of children invite young readers both to take notice and to look beyond the obvious. Combining lively action shots and candid portraits, Shelley Rotner's photographs showcase a wide variety of kids and families--many shades, and many bright smiles. |
Editorial Review | Reviews for Shades of People "It's a heartwarming effort that teachers and families can embrace and will doubtless find its way into many a curriculum on celebrating difference."--Kirkus Reviews "A good introduction to racial and ethnic diversity."--School Library Journal "this will enrich and spark discussions of diversity."--Booklist "This is a feel-good book for everyone."--Book Links |
