Hip Hop No. 1: Big, or Small, or Blue - Debora Emmert - Bog

What if you woke up one day and your best friend (a bunny) was a different color, shape, or size? How would you feel? This rhyming story explores the idea that if something happens to a friend which changes his or her looks, the person inside is still the same. It asks questions that help children develop empathy and tolerance for visual differences. The ideas presented in "Big, or Small, or Blue" can be used to teach children the value of being friends with people who don't look like them - and also to help them adjust to changes in appearance of family members or friends who've been in an accident or have become ill.
