"Different But The Same" introduces the reader to Noahland, a very real place where meals are received through a tummy tube, and leg braces, wheelchair and therapies are a part of life. But as you begin reading you discover a thoroughly likeable kid who enjoys doing the same things typical kids do, just in a different way. The book is a wonderful tool for parents and teachers to use when talking to children about those who are different from themselves due to disabilities. Children and adults alike will discover "different doesn't mean less than! Written in rhyme, and letting the obvious speak for itself, the vibrant illustrations bring to life the everyday nuances between typical and disability daily living in an engaging and enjoyable way. It is my hope that the reading of this book will result in casual as well as in-depth discussions about this topic. I hope it will alleviate the awkwardness and discomfort many children (and adults) feel when in the presence of a person with disabilities. I hope that parents and others with special needs kids in their lives will be encouraged as they see Noah and his mom focus less on the limitations of what they cannot do and more on the endless possibilities of what they CAN DO. And that can make a world of difference.
