Publisher Description:
This loving ode to our shared humanity is the perfect introduction to conversations about identity and Anti-Racism.* Will invite the book's audience to grapple with themes of individuality, diversity, universality, and what it means to be human. -- The Horn Book, starred reviewLoved it. -- Jacqueline Woodson, former Ambassador of Young People's Literature

Presented as a thoughtful, poetic exchange between two characters -- who don't realize they are thinking and asking the very same questions -- this beautiful celebration of our humanity and diversity invites readers of all ages to imagine a world where there is no you or me, only we.If the first step toward healing the world is to build bridges of empathy and celebrate rather than discriminate, Why Am I Me? helps foster a much-needed sense of connection, compassion, and love.
