It's Okay to Be Different
Todd Parr
Little, Brown Young Readers, 2004
It's Ok to be Different
wonderful resource for children in K-3 or for older children to read to younger children. We need more tools like this to sensitize human beings at an early age, that we are all different.

We're Different, We're the Same (Pictureback(R))
Bobbi Kates
Random House Books for Young Readers, 1992
Excellent!
This book is absolutely great for young children. It stresses the importance of how even though we are all different, we are all basically the same. It teaches children to accept everyone no matter how they look, what race they are, etc. This should be on the ...

Raising Boys: Why Boys Are Different - And How to Help Them Become Happy and Well-Balanced Men
Steve Biddulph
Celestial Arts, 2008
This is a great book for understanding boys
I bought this book because it became clear to me that I do not understand my 3 year old son and I realized it would only become worse as he grew older if I didn't at least try to figure out what is going on from his perspective.
I think that this book really tells ...

Same Kind of Different As Me: A Modern-Day Slave, an International Art Dealer, and the Unlikely Woman Who ...
Ron Hall, Denver Moore
Thomas Nelson, 2008
Outstanding, Compelling
Outstanding book! While my book club members had mixed reviews on this book, I thoroughly enjoyed it. It has a strong spirituality/religious message, which I mostly set aside. What was compelling to me was the cross-cultural relationship between the two authors, and ...

A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America
Ronald Takaki
Back Bay Books, 1994
Is this book biased?
Yes.... if you are a card carrying member of the white race desperate to cling to the myth that America is a good and just nation... one that should be held up as an example for the rest of the world to gaze at in awe... BUT If you are just a citizen, interested in a ...

In a Different Voice: Psychological Theory and Women's Development
Carol Gilligan
Harvard University Press, 1993
"I get it"
I actually am still reading this book because I am taking my time digesting it all. It's really giving me insight on how women's thoughts and opinions have been influenced from birth. It's helping me validate my own feelings and opinions.

Rules (Newbery Honor Book)
Cynthia Lord
Scholastic Press, 2006
Rules
We all do it, out of human nature. We see people we feel to be less fortunate than us and we can't help but look their way. A glance filled with pity and guilt. Whether it be physical limitations from something like cerebral-palsy or "odd" behavior stemmed from ...

Different Loving: The World of Sexual Dominance and Submission
William Brame, Gloria Brame
Villard, 1996
The book I've been waiting for!
I really, really love this book! There are a ton of books out there on technique, and books on what to do in the metaphorical bedroom, but this isn't one of them. It isn't a titillating erotic read. It's a book about the psychology, sociology, and philosophy of ...

Cool Colleges: For the Hyper-Intelligent, Self-Directed, Late Blooming, and Just Plain Different
Donald Asher
Ten Speed Press, 2007
Helpful advice / Unique Perspective
While Asher's advice and opinion may seem a bit heavy-handed or biased to some, he does provide a unique perspective about the college experience, from admissions all the way to post-graduation. The author went beyond the usual "K.Y.O.O.T." principle (Keep Your ...

Chazown: khaw-ZONE - A Different Way to See Your Life
Craig Groeschel
Multnomah Books, 2006
Excellent outline for growth without relying on the outline itself
It is very difficult for an "outline" or "set of disciplines" book to not become a formula for growth work, which almost always results in the reader relying on the formula for growth instead of God and their love of and desire for God.
Groeschel avoids this mistake ...

Caring for Patients from Different Cultures
Geri-Ann Galanti
University of Pennsylvania Press, 2008
High School Biology Teacher
My students loved the real life situations in this book! I recommend that teachers use this to incorporate multiculturalism in a very meaningful way in biology classes, and welcome ideas about how others use it. The way I did it was to present the problem, have ...
