In this colorful and touching board book that celebrates what makes each of us unique, a little creature that' s not quite a bird and not quite a bunny-it' s "neither"-searches for a place to fit in. In the Land of This and That, there are only two kinds: blue bunnies and yellow birds. But one day a funny green egg hatches, and a little creature that' s not quite a bird and not quite a bunny pops out. It' s neither!Neither tries hard to fit in, but its bird legs aren' t good for jumping like the other bunnies, and its fluffy tail isn' t good for flapping like the other birds. It sets out to find a new home and discovers a very different place, one with endless colors and shapes and creatures of all kinds. But when a blue bunny and a yellow bird with some hidden differences of their own arrive, it' s up to Neither to decide if they are welcome in the Land of All. This thoughtful story promotes diversity and offers a valuable lesson to the youngest of audiences: it is our differences that unite us.
A 2019 Rainbow Book List Selection A positive celebration of diversity and how our world is a better place when everyone is included. --The Reading Eagle Anderson (Cat' s Colors) tackles exclusion, difference, and identity in a sweet-tempered fable. . . . Anderson' s candy-colored palette and adorable cast of creatures reflect a spectrum of states of being, creating a book that works as a resource for conversations about race, blended identities, gender norms, and more. --Publishers Weekly Features key parts of the transgender experience and is perfect for kids in kindergarten through second grade. --Out. com Hits all right notes and is filled with fun, fantastical creatures to boot. --School Library Journal This stands out for its accessibility to even very young read-aloud audiences. A sweet story of acceptance for all those who are this, that, neither, either, and everything in between. --Kirkus
