All Kids Are Good Kids

This sweet board book celebrates different types of children that have one important thing in common: they're all good kids—and every kid is one of a kind.

Tall kids, short kids,
Build a pillow fort kids.

Shy kids, glad kids,
Love to belly laugh kids.

No two kids are alike and this charming story celebrates those special differences that make kids both unique and similar. Judy Carey Nevin's bouncing text paired with Susie Hammer's brilliant and bright art proves that while children may appear to be different, they also enjoy many of the same things. It's these shared differences and similarities that make every kid one of a kind.
