About this listen

In A Girl like Me: A Big, Bold and Beautiful Adventure to Loving All of Me, Joy is excited but nervous about starting at a new school. She looks around the classroom, hoping to find someone who looks like her—someone with dark skin, chubby cheeks, and a big round belly like hers. But as the day goes on, she feels left out and even gets teased for being different. Joy starts to wonder if she really belongs.

When she gets home, her dad reminds her that she is special just the way she is. As they talk, read stories, and watch TV together, Joy begins to see that being herself is the best thing she can be.

This heartwarming book teaches kids about self-love, confidence, and being kind to others. Joy dreams of becoming an astronaut, a gymnast, and a ballerina—showing that no matter what you look like, you can be anything!

A Girl like Me helps kids understand that being different is what makes them amazing.
