I Know You Are, But What Am I? is a picture book to help teach children about diversity, identity, and the transient relationships we have with each other and the world around us. Through interactive role play, young children (ages 1-8) will learn, experience, and become empowered by choosing from the simple picture format of images and characters. Children of all backgrounds are given the unique opportunity to create their very own narrative, in a positive engaging educational format. I Know You Are, But What Am I? engages children with "pick and choose" illustrations, from different genres upon each and every page. Children therefore have an opportunity to openly identify themselves and begin to appreciate, recognize, and relate to others in everyday life, regardless of geographical limitations. Encouraging freedom of expression through personal self-exploration, children safely observe a world of differing personas to engage with. In a world full of mixed messages, stereotypes, media and cultural pressures, I Know You Are, But What Am I? enables children an opportunity to experience the priceless beauty of diversity, with the option of "being someone, or at someplace else," on any given day.
