Synopsis

Seeing the joy in being completely unique.

“Why is their growl so loud, and scary and strong?
But mine is so quiet - is my growl wrong?”

Little Bear is beginning to notice that he is different from the other bears, and he has decided to ask mummy bear all about it.

Using engaging rhyme and endearing illustrations, The Unique Little Bear takes the reader on a gentle discovery and celebration of the uniqueness of every individual, and encourages us all to do the same.

Book 2 in the Stories with Heart Series.

According to the Oxford Dictionary, the meaning of unique is "being the only one of its kind; very special or unusual." Merriam-Webster lists unique as "being without a like or equal." Whether it's your fashion choices, personality, hairstyle, special skill, body shape, birthmark, or so on, we all possess something that makes us stand out from everyone else. Makes us ... unique.


Little bear noticed he didn't look exactly like the other bears. His fur was golden-red instead of brown. His growl didn't reach the same depths and volume as other bears. Even his paws weren't as mighty as theirs. Being "different" bothered the small animal, much like it does for many of us. We want to fit in, sometimes meaning we try to act or look like others. 


Every day, humans are mocked, teased, shunned, or made feel less than because of something deemed strange. That causes negative feelings about ourselves, squashes our self-esteem, and can cause people to isolate themselves from gatherings or friendships. This adorable children's book helps children understand that we all have characteristics or skills that set us apart from one another. We should never be embarrassed, sad, or ashamed about what's different about ourselves but, instead, love and embrace what makes us special. 


Mummy bear said it best when she tried to comfort her son with the fact we are all different from our eyes to our ears, from our fur to our feet. Substitute hair for feet, and that applies to humans. 


I loved everything about this book. The illustrations were spectacular. I was thrilled to see the animals were shaded in unorthodox colors, making each one unique and staying on target with the general theme of the story. And promoting positive body image and self-love is always a plus in my book! 


Share The Unique Little Bear with your children and teach them to love themselves from head to toe, inside and out.

About the author

My love of stories and the characters that inhabit them has been with me forever. As a child I could often be found with a plate of cucumber sandwiches and a pile of books about dragons, witches and magical adventures. My passion for creating my own soon followed. view profile
