"Roly-Poly and the Light is a well-written, wonderfully-illustrated, appealingly presented book that celebrates the fact that all of us have unique qualities that contribute to our respective communities. It's our differences that make us who we are.

 

Engagingly written in a way that younger children will understand and older children (including those of us well into late adulthood) will appreciate. The compelling discussion questions at the end of the book advance its themes perfectly and serve as a flexible basis for continued dialogue. Highly recommended!"
