Description: "Bodies come in all shapes and sizes. Not one size or shape or type of body is best. Your body is the right body for you, so show it some love. Every body is different, and every one is worth celebrating"--
Brief description: Miriam has a master's degree in children's literature from the University of Cambridge and a dog who is scared of cardboard. She lives in Minneapolis, MN, where she makes books and drinks tea.
Review Quotes: Moore-Keish and Ruiz have teamed up for this delightful and affirming board book celebrating body positivity. The cover and interior illustrations highlight children with various skin tones, ethnicities, body types, and physical abilities. The vibrant illustrations feature rainbows and just the right amount of rhyming text to keep toddlers interested and learning about what a body is for ("My body does so many different things") and how to keep it healthy no matter its appearance ("We all must sleep and eat"). The story features diverse children enjoying exciting activities such as swimming at a beach, attending a concert at a city park, and hiking in the mountains. The children also enjoy everyday activities like shopping at a farmers market, attending library story time, and playing in a backyard with friends. VERDICT This one begs for repeat reads and further discussion about what makes each of us unique. Every body will enjoy this book; a safe bet for all early childhood collections.--Carrie Voliva "School Library Journal"
