Just Me

by Michael Milano

Overview

Just Me is a heartwarming children's book about Jamie, a boy with a blank face who learns that the only path he truly needs to follow is his own.

Jamie's face has no eyes, no nose, no mouth-just a blank space like an unfinished painting. Everyone in Jamie's life has ideas about the kind of face he should have. His coach pushes for strength. His teacher insists on wisdom. Mom and Dad advocate compassion and stability. Even neighbors and Grandma throw in their two cents. But Jamie eventually figures out he doesn't need to choose any of their options. He just needs to choose himself.

Just Me is more than just a story. It's a lesson in self-discovery and accepting your true self. This book is perfect for children who are learning about themselves and adults who might have forgotten how unique they are. It's a great pick for family story time, schools, or a quiet bedtime read.

Grab your copy of Just Me and let yourself be reminded of the incredible power of simply being you.
