    I'm pretty picky about children's books. I like them to be of educational value or teach a life lesson. This one sounds like it would be a good addition to my collection!

    I would love to get this book for my daughter who is legally blind. She also has scars on her neck and back from brain and spine surgery. I always try to tell her that she is special because of it but she is more embarrassed.
