Beschreibung des Verlags
"An animated look at celebrating who you are and never letting others dim your light." --Kirkus reviews
A celebration of all the things that make you extraordinary, unique, and gorgeously YOU, by Jonathan Van Ness, New York Times bestselling author and star of the Netflix hit show Queer Eye.
I won't be afraid to stand out
or show the world what I'm all about.
I am exactly who I'm meant to be.
Perfectly, happily, gorgeously me!
Being true to yourself and showing the world who you are isn't always easy. Gorgeously Me assures young readers that they are loved and cherished, exactly as they are. A joyous, lyrical ode of pride and self love and a celebration of all of the things that make us exceptional. Perfect for fans of I Am Enough by Grace Byers and The World Needs Who You Were Made to Be by Joanna Gaines.
Praise for Gorgeously Me!:
"Fans of Van Ness's previous picture book will enjoy this infectious ode to self-expression." --Kirkus reviews
"In step with Nair’s sunny slice-of-life imagery, jubilant text further reinforces the power of friendship and community in supporting a strong sense of self." --Publishers Weekly
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"I'm perfectly, happily, gorgeously me"—the repeating sentiment empowers in Van Ness's affirming title, which foregrounds themes of confidence and self-acceptance. Upbeat rhymes loosely partner with busy scenes of round-headed kids putting themselves out there: singing among friends, jumping into a lake, dancing onstage, parading down the street, and more. The children, pictured with various abilities and skin tones, seem to give off the sparkly confetti present in each image as they take evident pride in their unique traits. In step with Nair's sunny slice-of-life imagery, jubilant text further reinforces the power of friendship and community in supporting a strong sense of self: "When I'm feeling low and like I don't belong,/ it's those around me who make me feel strong." An author's note concludes. Ages 4–8.
