Synopsis "See What i can do!"
'An orchestra has many instruments that harmonise together to create a wonderful sound. Humans each have strengths and weaknesses, but we need them all to create a vibrant world. This book beautifully demonstrates that.’ Professor Tom Shakespeare FBA, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine 'Diversity is a way of accepting and embracing difference. It’s a great means of exploring positive and meaningful differences as well as changes so we all experience opportunities, the chance for fair play and equality.’ Tessa Sanderson CBE 'This book is really helpful to me as well as beautiful. I am involved in a lot of inclusion and this helps me understand more types of difference.’ Sarah Gordy, professional actor, dancer and model 'After speaking to friends and family who have disabilities, we wanted to write this book to help raise awareness in school and at home and to share real-life stories direct from children from around the world' Jon Roberts Jon Roberts relates the real-life experiences of children with a variety of differences through their own words in this gently-told but immensely informative new picture book. A variety of conditions, including LLD (Leg length discrepancy), autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, ADHD, Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, spina bifida, epilepsy, osteogenesis imperfecta and asthma are introduced for young readers, discussing how the challenges of each affect children both in a school setting and outside and how they engage in activities they love. Ideal for shared reading with children or for use in the classroom to aid an understanding of difference and inclusion. Beautifully illustrated throughout by Hannah Rounding
