Product Overview

by Akansha A. Gawade This Is Who I Am is a creative tale that introduces young children to the idea that science and the world of nature are closely connected to personal emotions and experiences of life. By detailing the beauty and wonder of change in nature through the transformation of a caterpillar, this charming story emphasizes the importance of self-acceptance and courage. While the changes that the little caterpillar sees taking place are alarming, he learns to celebrate his development, and the simple narrative shares this experience in the manner a young child can identify with and appreciate. This Is Who I Am encourages the reader to anticipate growth and change and provides a positive and entertaining model for learning about nature. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Akansha A.
