Catie is a little ladybug who realizes when she starts school that she's different from the other ladybugs: she doesn't have any spots. Catie slowly begins to build her self-esteem with the help of her mother and a beautiful thing happens to her. This story teaches children that everyone is different and that's a wonderful thing. How boring would life be if everyone were the same?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis story was inspired by my daughter's trials and tribulations in elementary school when she felt \"different\" from everyone else because she didn't have a father. Rather than writing a children's story about the loss of a parent, I chose to create a brightly colorful book to help young children who are feeling different for any sort of reason in the hopes of helping build their self-esteem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is also available in hard copy through Etsy and I will be happy to personalize your book upon request.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mary Lotorto-Soroka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47177220161776,"sku":"2940045001502","price":2.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940045001502_p0.jpg?v=1763969694","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940045001502","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
