description: We Are All The Same follows the travels of a young boy within his community as he seeks to understand the question, "Why do people look differently?" As the child's journey progresses, he develops an increased awareness, understanding and appreciation of human diversity through the cultural richness of his community. He further understands the complexities of human physical diversity as the similarities among people's external features are sometimes indistinguishable. The inclusion of Suggested Activities , which enhance the message of the story, provides young children with introductory activities about the world around them. "We Are All The Same" is a good collaboration between author and illustrator. The content acknowledges our common humanity. The illustrations demonstrate the degree of talent that exists within the Louisiana public school system. The text generates content that can be integrated across subjects." Freddie Whitford, Executive Director-Louisiana School Boards Association/Former Superintendent of Jefferson Davis Parish Public Schools "A great supplemental text for new teachers in addressing individual differences when planning for classroom instruction." Cathy Toni Chase, M.Ed., Human Resources Specialist and New Teacher Mentor "This book addresses fundamental questions about humanity explored by young children. Its simplicity may broaden a child's outlook of the world and its people." Rita A. Mitchell, Ed.D., Early Childhood Educator, Associate Professor of Child Development "As a resolution to conflict regarding human differences among children, We Are All the Same, provides Suggested Activities that may be used by school-based personnel as intervention techniques to foster positive communication about self and others." Yolda M. Williams, School Disciplinarian/Parent
