Review:
Emme and her family live in a world where people wear outfits that look like hamburgers. In the story, they are referenced as buns and Emme has a bun with sparkles. When she wears it two days in a row without washing it her friends at school take notice and make fun of her.
At
home, she shares with her parents that she likes looking like her friends to
fit in. They explain that it’s alright to be different and that what matters is what
is inside a person. That night, Emme felt restless and decided to create her
own unique look. What do you think she did?
This delightful story about being yourself is very unique. Colorful illustrations show buns of all kinds. The message shared with young readers is that it’s okay to be different and this story certainly is. Parents and teachers can use this as a guide to show kids how to have fun while being themselves.
