Whether loud or quiet, silly or shy, curious or calm—kids come in all kinds, and Some Kids makes space to celebrate every one of them. Perfect for sparking conversations about identity, self-expression, acceptance, and friendship, this empowering book is ideal for home libraries, preschool classrooms, and back-to-school reading.
