Can I Build Another Me?

I bought this book for my child in anticipation of a likely ADHD diagnosis. Perfect for celebrating their individuality, unique and brilliant character, talents and gifts. Simple yet perfect for opening up conversation. Pictures are brilliant in supporting the text too. My favourite book for children of this summer.

I absolutely love this book!! It has become my new favourite to use with the children at school. Gorgeous pictures and a brilliant starting point to make the children reflect about themselves as a person. Going to use it as a get to know you book in September.

Purchased this book after buying another title from Yoshitake, ‘Is it an apple?’, I am hooked on this author! Fabulous and humorous illustrations and thought provoking text. My 4 and 6 year old sons love discussing each element of what makes us us, a complex subject made accessible for young minds. I’ve since purchased two more titles by Yoshitake, both equally engaging!

5 year old really enjoyed this book and the illustrations are lovely. It was a great prompt for discussion about what makes our personalities different and what makes you, you.

A lovely book that explores what makes a person. My son enjoyed reading this immensely as it was both funny and interesting. Lovely illustrations too.

Lovely book about self awareness both for children and adults. With humor and excellent illustration.

What a beautiful book to teach children about identity and what really makes you, you! Fantastic illustrations and supporting text which would appeal to audiences both younger and older.

Lovely idea for a book and well illustrated but lines such as “I can’t… understand girls” are sexist and should be said as that when read with children. Also the double page on ‘I was made by my mum and dad’ is fine but then to say they had a mum and dad of their own and tracing the family backwards are all mums and dads- there are lots of other ways babies are made and this should be represented, especially if being used in schools. It is such a shame. If these could be amended and reprinted I would keep this book on the curriculum for my class but teaching it’s ok to be sexist is not OK!
