God Made Me Unique: Helping Children See Value in Every Person

God Made Me Unique helps parents and caregivers teach children that God creates every person in the image of God and each individual has tremendous value, regardless of his/her appearance or abilities.

The story is set in a Sunday school classroom where a new girl, Brie, is introduced by her mom. Brie's Sunday school teacher takes the time to welcome Brie and to explain to the other children why she is wearing headphones. Through getting to know Brie, the children are guided into a biblical understanding of the uniqueness of each of God's children.

Told in a charming rhyming style, this colourful, hardcover book will help eliminate fear and misconceptions about those who have special needs and emphasises that every person deserves to be treated with kindness and respect.

The back of the book contains a special section for parents and caregivers to guide and equip them to have biblical, loving conversations with children about this important topic.

“This book is a gift to parents as they raise reflective and compassionate children. What a spectacular application of the doctrine of creation: the teaching that we are all made in the image of God! These teachings are significant for how we interact with people of all different types of abilities. This book highlights our value as God’s creatures and celebrates the different gifts God has given to each member of his family.”
—Justin S. Holcomb and Lindsey A. Holcomb

“As a father of a child with a disability, I love the message of this book—both for kids with disabilities and their peers who welcome and embrace them. Of all the places where this message needs to be heard and taken to heart, there is none more important than the church itself.”
—Rev. Steve Bundy, Sr. Vice President, Joni and Friends International Disability Center
