Inspired to Be… Social Emotional Learning 3-Book Set

This book is easy to read. It has explanations and also engages the reader as well by asking follow up questions. I really wish I had this book as a child. I bought these books as a bundle.

This book makes you appreciate your differences. Everybody is not the same, even if you don't fit in one crowd there's a spot for you somewhere else. Good read!

I love this book! People are constantly being judging others for their perceived differences. This story reminds you that loving yourself and the love of your family and friends are what's most important. I absolutely love the glossary and positive affirmations page.

We've met the author a few times at local events and I'm so excited there are more and more books at each event. This book is a great one that my 4 yo loves to read and carry around. He sees himself and his friends depicted in the characters. We like that there are interactive questions throughout the book and a glossary at the end. Looking forward to reading and enjoying the other books.

I met Crystel at an Arts Fair and was impressed by the quality of her books and the messages within. They story includes important messages about the good in everyone and includes definitions of words that younger readers may not know. The art work is also fantastic and very engaging. I highly encourage you to check out Crystel Patterson's entire line and share within your own circle. I purchased both "Superheroes Here and There" and "I am Different", both part of the Inspired to Be series. I am super excited to give them to a special young person in my life.

This is a social story that is a great addition to any classroom or home bookshelf as it teaches everyone to love oneself truly despite outside opinions. It also has daily affirmations reminders and prompts for you and your child to fill out at home.

A great children's book. My kid loves it when we read it.

This is a great book to celebrate differences. or should I say, what makes us special. After all, if everyone were the same, this world would be such a boring place! The story takes us on a journey to identify the things that make three young ones different from their peers. These differences are however what makes them stand out... what makes them special & unique. There is a place for children to write their own affirmations which is a great bonus. There is some punctuation missing in the story that can be overlooked with the important message that every child should know.

I picked up this series at a craft show where I was able to meet the author. She is just as kind in person as she portrays in her stories. She took the time to write a kind message to my third grade students. I can't wait to share this with them.

This makes a wonderful gift or addition to a classroom or personal library. What a wonderful story in acceptance that is important for all kids to hear.

My nephew and I truly enjoyed this wonderful story. He is obsessed with superheroes like the little boy in this book. He was more amazed to find out that everyday people who do good deeds are the real superheroes. The author did a fabulous job conveying this important message and simplifying it in a way that my 4-year-old nephew could understand. Bravo! I highly recommend this book.

This book taught my four year old and myself a wonderful concept. He loves superheroes so he was instantly drawn to the book and on the last page he jumped in and pointed out all the superheroes; which really showed that he understood the concept of the book. He was introduced to crossing guards and scientists which he keeps talking about!

I love the fact that it encourages me to love myself no matter what color I am

This book is fantastic. It deals with a lot of important topics, all while being gentle and understanding. The words flow well together so my 4 year old can repeat certain sentences (which helps him further grasp the concepts). I would highly recommend it to kids and parents! I met the author at a book festival and she was so kind.

An interesting read to inspire young children to do their work diligently and for the good of mankind. There is q superhero in every person.

A very cute story that brings out the true traits that makes someone a "superhero". Told through the eyes of a wide-eyed superhero-loving child, and includes new words and concepts to introduce and explain to little ones.

Having worked with kids a lot throughout my life, superheroes are something kids all gravitate to and admire. I enjoyed this story with James who is the main character. His curiosity and questions he asks his parents are touching. I liked the way the parents explained to James about real life superheroes...all around us.

This is an inspiring book especially for young children of colour. It is important for them to know that Superheros are in our everyday lives. We can aspire to be a Superhero too. The illustrations are bright and engaging. Great effort by this author.

Me and my boy enjoyed this beautiful story since absolutely loves superheroes. It's a wonderful way to teach that there are amazing people out there that are heroes. Beautiful illustrations that captivate the reader. We can't wait to read more from the author.

A very positive and strong message told in a fun way.Great story that teaches children that superheroes come in all shapes, sizes and, forms.

This is a beautiful book which is an inspiration for little kids. Superheroes are all around us, helping us all the time. By the end of the story James realizes that there is not one, but many superheroes whom he already knows! What an amazing way to merge Fantasy with Reality !And the illustrations explain it all .

I can’t wait to recommend this story to the teachers at my school. Often times, we struggle with finding literature for boys, but this story is the perfect fit. As a literacy Coach, I also love that the author added meanings of words at the bottom to help the reader. This story also has a great message!

A wonderful story about a boy who really loves superheroes! With cute illustrations and questions and new vocabulary on each page that will engage children. This story inspires imagination and teaches about the real heroes in everyday life!

James loves superheroes. He loves them so much! He loves them so much that he desperately wants them to be real. His parents lovingly point out to him how real people around him act as superheroes everyday.This is a cute story to springboard discussions about character and how our actions effect others around us.The illustrations are adorable and I just love the positive message. I definitely recommend this for your child's reading list.

Adorable and Inspiring book about real life hero's. Fun illustrations and seamless flow. A great book to teach children about REAL super heroes and the traits that make them. Highly recommend!

Love this story! My son love superheros and to learn that super heros exist in real life, blew his mind. The diversity shown in the illustrations are superb and there's so much to do per page. This is the second book we have read in this series. Can't wait to read more.

This book is written to help children realize that they are all special and unique. The positive affirmations are genuine and should be very helpful for children who may feel a bit out of place. I enjoyed the definitions and questions throughout the book. A very helpful resource for all schools!

This book is about embracing who you are and what you look like no matter what others think or say. It is sad we still need a book like this. It is a wonderful message to teach children thatbeing different is beautiful and to be embraced it. Great job.
