Recensioner i media

“[Refiloe] Moahloli’s work makes for a stunning picture book for young readers and their grown-ups that focuses on our shared sense of community…I Am You acknowledges differences children experience in who they are and the environments in which they are raised, but celebrates our shared humanity and the strength in treating other with love and respect. A recommended first purchase.” —School Library Journal (starred review)“An edifying, unifying picture book that’s much needed in these divisive times.” —Kirkus Reviews“This heartwarming book, with its wonderful artwork and lyrical text, illustrates this idea beautifully.” —Midwest Book Review“Listening, laughing, loving, the children readily demonstrate that the collective whole is happier when each individual is valued. The illustrations use settings and images that children will understand, thereby helping them comprehend the messages of ‘to hurt you is to hurt myself’ and ‘to care for you is to care for myself’.” —Booklist
