About the book
Somos como somos (Who We Are)
In the Spanish-language edition of the bestselling A Kid Is a Kid Is a Kid, a group of kids share the silly questions they always hear, as well as the questions they would rather be asked about themselves.
¿Qué pasa cuando compartes las preguntas tontas que siempre te hacen, como también las preguntas que preferirías que te hicieran?
Preseleccionado para el TD Canadian Children’s Literature Award
y el Ruth and Sylvia Schwartz Children’s Book Award

“Una celebración de la diversidad y la inclusión”. — Booklist
“Con un espíritu unánime de inclusión en sus páginas, el cuento anima a los lectores a
repensar el primer encuentro con otras personas”. — Horn Book
