Happy within is a colourful and happy picture book that will help children from around the world learn about self-love & embrace diversity.
All children are special
The message of the book is to help teach children to love themselves and be happy within their own skin. No matter where in the world they are from, whether the race, the background, etc. every child is unique and special.
A diverse multicultural children’s book
The book includes a diverse range of characters from all over the world. As a mother to biracial children, I noticed the lack of diverse characters in children’s book and wanted to be inclusive. The message to all of the children is that they should love themselves for who they are, and support each other to be the best they can be.
It is a positive children’s book teaching them to be proud of themselves, proud of who they are and of their uniqueness. Only through self-love and believing in oneself it is possible to be happy within.
Bilingual editions
In addition to the English book, I created bilingual editions to help children and parents learn another language together. I think that it is important we teach our kids from early on to love themselves and to accept others. It is a message and an important life lesson for kids all around the world, hence why I was so passionate about publishing it in various languages.
You will find below the links to all of the current versions available at this present time. Follow @lingobabies via Instagram to stay up to date with new releases, or make requests for additional language editions.
I hope you and your children love the book!
