Take a look around you. What do you see? Is everything exactly the same or does it all appear differently? Do you see a lot of colors? Brown, yellow, blue, or green? Do you like one color more or do you like them all equally?

Now read this book and tell me if you do or don’t agree, that Same, Same, and Different! is how our world is meant to be.

Same, Same, and Different! takes us on a lyrical journey through the diversity of our planet, from animals to food to humans-while explaining how variety leads to preference, taste, judgment, choice, and humanity. This full-color picture book, with accompanying scan-and-play song, is perfect for both children and adults to learn about diversity and choice.

Valerie Smith writes fun, colorful, joyful stories featuring easy-to-digest and entertaining life lessons covering topics such as releasing negative emotions and self-appreciation via Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or tapping), the beauty of difference and equality, the power of choice, and love as an infinite resource.
