In the #1 New York Times bestseller, The World Needs Who You Were Made to Be , Joanna Gaines celebrates how creativity and acceptance can come together to make for a bright and beautiful adventure. The book, illustrated by Julianna Swaney, follows a group of children as they each build their very own hot-air balloons. As the kids work together, leaning into their own skills and processes, we discover that the same is true for life—it's more beautiful and vibrant when our differences are celebrated. Together with Joanna, you and your kids will take a journey of growth and imagination as you learn in full color to: celebrate every child's one-of-a-kind strengths and differences; embrace teamwork; share our talents and abilities to make everything more beautiful; and end a helping hand and do our best to show kindness and take care of one another. The World Needs Who You Were Made to Be is a vibrant picture book perfect for: children ages 4–8; grandparents, parents, teachers, and librarians; classroom story times and discussions about diversity and being a good human being; households that enjoy watching Chip and Joanna on Magnolia Network and HGTV's Fixer Upper; and holiday or Christmas gift-giving, birthdays, graduations, or other celebrations. With plenty of pink, a bounty of blue, orange and green and yellow too, this vibrant hot-air balloon adventure celebrates every child and teaches kids that we are in this together. “You're one of a kind, and it's so clear to see: The world needs who you were made to be.” Review: Makes for a perfect gift! - @joannagaines is the bees knees & she wrote this cutie book & that makes it even better!

I got this for my son's teachers to sign for him
I wanted a different book (than "The Places you will go" ) for my son's teachers to sign each year. This is such a cute book, and I can't wait for him to see it.

Beautiful book, message, and gift!
Highly recommend gifting this book at a baby shower, first birthday, to a teacher, or truly for any occasion. I love reading this book to my Kindergarten students and my toddler, all ages will enjoy it! It would be great for a full lesson or unit on acceptance with students designing their own hot air balloons and explaining what they bring to the table for others, so many possibilities! The offset letters are texturally pleasing. The colors are calming and aesthetically eye catching. However, most of all, it’s the message that is my favorite, YOU are needed! Write a note on the inside front cover and it’ll become a cherished lifetime keep sake.

Good For Kiddos Teachers To Sign
Purchased this book for my youngest to have teachers sign as he goes thru school. My oldest has “Oh, the places you’ll go” but wanted something different for siblings. Very cute and inspiring.
