You Are Okay!

Sometimes people don't like you for no reason at all. It isn't your fault, and you have done nothing wrong; but it still doesn't feel good. This is yet another book by award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan, written just to remind you that you ARE okay; and that no matter what, you need to be who you are and follow your dreams. Read this book along with Dyan's book, "Woolly Bully," and get a complete picture of what Dyan is saying.

Dyan believes self esteem is very important to everyone, and 'especially to a child, who should (of course) behave; but other than that, should be accepted just for whom she or he is. The reason? We all need to grow up to be who we are meant to be.

Dyan again mixes serious thought with humor and kid-friendly drawings and easy reader vocabulary so a kid can make this book his or her own. Rhyme and picture recognition, along with repetition, allow the child to guess and shout aloud what comes next, further drawing the child into the thoughts in the book and the learning experience.
