All Kinds of People Board book – September 25, 2018

This is my daughter's favorite book. She is 15 months old, so some of the content may escape her, but she adores looking at the photographs of other young children (with which the book is filled.) My daughter is mixed race and she seems to especially appreciate the fact that the book truly does feature children of many different "shades" (the term the book uses); she seems to have identified with 2 other little girls pictured in the book and often points to their pictures and then to herself. I think the book is the best type of children's book: it discusses a complex topic at a pretty sophisticated level (the book acknowledges that we do all look different, but suggests that traditional racial categories are a terrible and destructive way to describe this difference), by using simple language that doesn't tax toddler attention spans. A really great addition to our library.

I love the photos and the words in this book. An important thing to teach that people come in all different shades and colors. Very nicely done. Gave to my 1 year old granddaughter.

My biracial son had been wondering why he didn’t look like his father. His dad is his hero and this book was perfect for helping explain that people are different colors and everyone is special. He loves pointing to the children that look like him as well as his dad and I. It’s perfect for introducing different races especially if you have a biracial child.

These books are quality made and the photographs are exceptional. We like the inclusive, accepting message taught in this book specifically. Well done!

If you’re looking for a book to introduce your child to other shades of people, this is it. It’s simple, baby and toddler simple. My 2 year old loves it. I can stop reading and he picks up where I left off! He loves this book and begs me to read it every night and I love that it’s exposing my son to other shades besides mine, my husband’s, and his. Great book!

The book is great! But the title is not. How about All Colors Of People? I thought the whole point was having different colored skin doesn’t mean you’re a different kind of person…

This is a nice size board book that's easy for small hands, and the photos are beautiful.My granddaughter loves it and there's no age too young to teach respect for all shades of people.

This book is so lovely! It has really bright and vibrant pictures, it certainly showcases all different skin colors, and the pages about there being many colors within the same family makes me so happy (our family is like that!). It is my son's favorite book. The book has taken quite a beating (my son likes to chew his books and bend the covers backwards) but once it bites the dust I plan to purchase another.
