Differences

There are many books written just for children. But there are not as many that will appeal to parents as well -- and especially books that deliver a powerful message. Differences is a book just published that does all of that, plus it has clever illustrations on every page.The author, Gerard Arantowicz, is a cartoonist who was inspired to write about and draw children. But he also wanted to teach them a lesson. In his latest book, he uses verse and cartoon characters to explain how we should deal with those who are physically different.Each character is hurt by unkind comments. But then they learn to be grateful for what they have. A blind girl delivers her message: "I see in your heart, and that's all that counts."Your inside is that to which your true self amounts."All people are different on the outside, "But equally special on the inside."Differences is a book that can be enjoyed by the youngest toddler to middle school age children. The drawings are inspired and witty. And the vers is easily read.Arantowicz, Gerard is the author of 'Differences' with ISBN 9781585971558 and ISBN 1585971553.
