Take a rollicking, rhyming ride through the animal kingdom to discover that no matter how different we may be, it takes all kinds, shapes, colors and sizes to make the world a special, wondrous place. Author/Illustrator Paolo Mazzucato presents a little tale designed to remind young readers that even though we are different in many ways, each of us is part of a global community that is made better by those very unique qualities. Celebrate diversity and "whatever kind of beast you are, smile in the world's embrace."
