Product Description What if everybody were more thoughtful before they judged someone? If you see someone in a wheelchair, you might think he or she couldn’t compete in a race. But…you might be wrong. What if you see a child with no hair? Do you think she is embarrassed all the time? How about a kid who has a really hard time reading? Do you think that means he’s not smart? You might think so. But…you might be wrong. With clear prose and lighthearted artwork, this companion book to the bestseller What If Everybody Did That? explores the preconceived notions we have about the world and encourages kids to be more thoughtful. Review “In this addition to the What If Everybody? series, Javernick encourages readers to rethink preconceptions. Madden’s upbeat artwork features an inclusive cast of characters…Javernick suggests that stereotypes are always worth challenging.” —Publishers Weekly “This is a message-driven work but certainly a message that still needs to be delivered either in a classroom setting or during a parent-child teaching moment.
