I Am Rare (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798993195902)

I Am Rare is a lyrical picture book about identity, belonging, and discovering strength in what makes us different. Told in the voice of a young boy with an ultra-rare genetic condition, the story invites readers to explore how understanding oneself can lead to confidence and pride.

As the boy reflects on what makes him unique, he begins to see that even superheroes draw their powers from what sets them apart. Along the way, the book gently introduces the idea of genes as the instructions that help make each person who they are, giving children language to better understand differences with empathy and self-acceptance.

Through poetic text and expressive illustrations, I Am Rare celebrates resilience, individuality, and the courage it takes to embrace who you are. Ideal for families, classrooms, and caregivers, the story supports social-emotional learning and encourages meaningful conversations about inclusion, identity, and understanding others.

Everyone carries something extraordinary within them - and being rare is its own kind of superpower.
