Be Your Own Hero (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781088167380)

Meet Veeru, a little hero who walked through all odds and made it in his favor at the end. He is not ready to leave his cultural values rather hold strong to it. Veeru made it clear that once you realize your power, gain confidence in oneself, then nothing can stop you. This story tells you all culture is unique and we must learn to respect the diversity.

This book is both beautifully written and illustrated. The message is very clear: everyone is valuable, no matter their ability-level, physical/mental condition or background. Wonderful story that teaches kids not to judge others by their differences and be kind to everyone. No matter what your color, race, financial status or interests are, there is something special about everyone. I absolutely adore this book!
