Yoon, Salina Be A Friend. PICTURE
BOOK. Bloomsbury Publishing. 2016. $17.99. Content: G.
Dennis is a mime who is
quiet and acts everything out just like mimes do. He does things differently
than other kids, and he doesn't mind a bit. Sometimes he gets lonely just like
everyone does. Most kids think he is different and don't know how to act around
him, but Joy understands him.
This book illustrates that being different is a
great and "normal" thing. Everyone feels a little odd sometimes. It
is hard-warming to see that even when we feel like we don't fit in, there are
always friends who understand us. Many lessons can be learned from a discussion
after reading this story. The illustrations are unique and capture who Dennis
really is.
