“Just Ask: Be Different, Be Brave, Be You,” by Sonia Sotomayor, illustrated by Rafael Lopez

This New York Times #1 bestseller is a beautifully-illustrated children’s book, authored by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who has spent much of her life living with diabetes. Feeling different is rough, especially for kids. This book acknowledges the difficulty while helping children recognize the ways in which different types of people make our world more vibrant and wonderful. For a differently-abled child, or a child who is learning about empathy, this is a marvelous resource.
