Because we are human, we are full of potential; we learn, we dream, and we wonder about the world around us. Yet, at the same time, we make many mistakes, which may lead us to feel afraid or sad, and we might hurt others or get hurt ourselves.
Author Susan Verde and illustrator Peter H. Reynolds, who previously collaborated on the best-selling books (I Am Yoga, I Am Peace, I Am Love, and I Am One), team up once again to present this hopeful new release for the human race. "I Am Human" is a story of what it means to be human as an individual within our human society.
As humans, we are prone to making many mistakes, but we possess the power to choose how we deal with them—learning from them, changing for the better, and acting with kindness toward others, even when it is difficult. This story emphasizes that we always have the power to choose and to make good decisions with love, mercy, and empathy for one another and for ourselves. When we find common ground with others, we feel our connection to this great world and everything around us, striving to be the best versions of ourselves.
With its simple text and charming illustrations, this gentle and enjoyable book will make your little one want to read it over and over again. Every phrase opens rich opportunities for discussion and the kind of sweet, calm conversation that only accompanies truly special books.
