By helping children focus on self-esteem and self-acceptance, she teaches them important social skills that they will use all their lives. People who are comfortable in their own bodies are more likely to see the good in others, not just the differences. I'm OK follows a group of children as they form a special band of friends. Tommy is short, but Shannon is tall. Joey is big, and Noah is scrawny. They don't let these differences stop them from having fun Use this book as a starting point for a discussion with your children about friendship, acceptance, and self-esteem.
