Title: Same
Difference
Author/illustrator:
Calida Rawles
Genre: Realistic Fiction
This book is
about two little girls name Lida and Lisa. These two girls were first cousins
who did everything together like twins. They shared the same seat, swim
together, and even had tea parties together. One day at their grandmother’s
house they both put on her dresses with white pearls and matching shoes. They
both looked into the mirror and saw they both had different colored skin, one
had light skin and the other had dark skin. Lida hair was long and Lisa’s hair
was short. They both asked their grandmother why they looked so different, and
she explained to them that they might have different skin color or hair but
they are perfect and the special in their own way. The two girls left happy
about their difference and most of loved each other because they were best
friends and family.
I would read this book to a first grade class
room! This book shares the beautiful aspect on life that we all might have our
own differences but we can all come together and love each other the same way.
