Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for making this available..

'All People Are Beautiful' is a beautiful illustrated book was a great message. It focuses on no matter how different we are whether it's about our skin colour, our nationality or what our native language but that we are all beautiful.

It's very colourful and vibrant with a clear message that kids will definitely love and enjoy!

A beautiful book about diversity to open the eyes of the little ones and teach them empathy and acceptance of being different.

This is a beautiful book for children. The illustrations are absolutely wonderful, and the focus on diversity as it relates to a child’s perspective is very well done. My children related to this well and understood all of the concepts even as toddlers. These are the most important types of books to read to children and I can’t wait to purchase this when it is published.

A great message for kids to think of all races and languages as beautiful. I would loved it even more to see some LGBTQ+ rep and disability rep. Great read overall.

Rating: 5/5 stars.

“All People Are Beautiful” is a wonderfully illustrated children’s book focused on one central lesson: despite our differences, everyone is beautiful and unique, and deserving of respect. The book is easy-to-understand, written with simple vocabulary and including some rhyming.

I absolutely adored the art style. My favourite illustration included ways to say “Hello!” in many different languages, which is a fun exercise for the reader to practice and enjoy. I also loved how the author included a graphic that teaches basic ways to be kind and respectful towards others. They are easy ways that children can incorporate into their day-to-day life, such as saying “thank you” and “great job.” At the end of the book, I loved that the author included an interactive activity section. Activities like the ones included are a great way for children to practice and use the lessons and material from the book.

I highly recommend this book for children of all ages to enjoy, be it alone or with the help of an older reader.

What a great simple book about how wonderful we all are. I like the simple message and the lovely illustrations. I like when my son can get the message easily and be able to see a diverse cast of people in his books.

Thank you to Netgalley & the publisher/author for the opportunity to read this ARC of All People Are Beautiful in exchange for an honest review. This review will be cross-posted to Goodreads.

This is a young reader's book with a simple message: all people are beautiful. It espouses the importance of acceptance and diversity. The reading level would depend on if the child was reading independently or with an adult; however, it ranges in short bits to blocks of text.

The strength of the book is in the illustrations. They are very, very top notch and high-quality. Very colorful and entertaining.

I do not think the text itself is anything extravagant or groundbreaking. Yet, as I stated, the illustrations tied together with a kind and altruistic message ensure a pleasant read.

Another benefit, which I noticed is common in a lot of young reader's books I've seen on NetGalley, is that there is an activity set in the back of the book. I really like that! Engaging children with the book through activities is a great way to drive home the message, while also adding an extra bang for the buck so to speak. This book has a "draw your own character" that matches the design of the people in the book, as well as a design your own flag. I really liked that! Great addition.

Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC copy of this book.
Read and reviewed by seven-year-old Amy.
‘All People Are Beautiful’ is a picture book that teaches us that everybody is unique and we should respect the difference. This book teaches us many important themes: we should never discriminate or tease anyone about their appearance as it might hurt them. We should be kind to others.
This book is full of beautiful and colorful illustrations, which will grab younger readers’ attention. The cover is also very attractive.
I recommend this book to children three years and above.
I give this book 5/5 stars.

A fun way to introduce kids to appreciate each others' differences from a young age, and also great for kids from all backgrounds to see a tiny glimpse of themselves represented. The illustrations were beautiful and the little activities at the end seemed fun. Although it's been a long time since I was in a children's classroom I feel that this would be a worthy addition to every one. I would definitely recommend this book for young kids.

This book is such a powerful and cute reminder for kids. It celebrates diversity. It shows how beautiful every single person is, no matter what they look like or where they are from. I would definitely buy this for future children's collection.

I was just in the mood to read and review a cute and inspiring children's novel, and this definitely provided! This was adorable and just as equally meaningful!!!

A very simple book for children, opening the topic that all people are beautiful, as they are.
Told from a child's perspective, relatives and friends, people with long and short hair, various kinds of hobbies - they all have their spot in the child's world.
I can imagine for this one to be a great "starter" book in order to explain a child that there are so many different people in this world.

This was wonderful. I try to find books that are diverse, empathetic and educational, so that my son can see himself represented in art. It was a cute book, with beautiful and bright illustrations. My son liked to touch all of the vibrant colors.
