I received an electronic ARC from Our Daily Bread Publishing through NetGalley.
The narrating child tells readers how the children they see are different from them and from each other. Then a realization hits and they start to share how everyone is alike and yet different and special.
Told in rhyme with vividly colorful illustrations.
Simple to follow for younger readers and terrific family read to share about everyone being unique and yet similar in so many ways.

I was blessed with the chance to read and advanced readers copy of "Different Like Me" written by Xochitl Dixon. This is a wonderful book. The premise is to verbalize to children that yes, there are differences between everyone, this is what makes us unique and special. Hand in hand with our differences are the ways in which we are all alike. The illustrations were beautiful and subtly shared all the wonders of different children. I plan to add this book to my collection to share with both my children and my students

I LOVE the diversity embraced in this book! From service dogs, to ASL, to people with handicaps and all different cultures. This book is beautifully written and illustrated. A great book to spark a conversation with children about people who are "different."
