Children's Literature
Discussions of differences can be greatly aided by children's books and it doesn't take an older child to begin discussions. Peter Spier's nearly wordless book, People, for example, can be shared with a three-year-old and still become focus of discussion for a ten year old. The wealth of pictures discuss the uniqueness of people in terms of size, color, differing systems of taste and belief, and varying physical and mental abilities. This book can be a wonderful departure point for talking about all kinds of subjects from world peace to prejudice.

    Raising a Tolerant Child

    People is a book about the kaleidoscope created by differences in the people of the world. Peter Spier illustrates differences in everything from clothing to noses to customs, showing respect for all. Our three children found the illustrations fascinating when they were young. The book provided a platform for discussing diversity and teaching respect. This Christmas, I'm buying the book for my grandaughters to continue the family tradition...

    a lesson in diversity

    I use this book in the classroom as a lesson in respecting diversity in others. Kids find some of the illustrations really interesting.
