You Are Enough: A Book About Inclusion

This book is the sweetest story that has a very important message- especially today. The fact that the message comes from the point of view of a small girl with Down syndrome is beyond amazing. The illustrations in this book gave me goosebumps, as they portray children of all backgrounds and abilities. As I read it to my son he asked questions about some of the characters which was the perfect opportunity to teach him about others who might be different from him- including his own sister who also has Down syndrome. Sofia Sanchez is making strides in the world. She is not only paving her own way, but making the path clearer for others, too. Buy this book! It’ll probably make you cry, but in a good way.

We loved the book! My daughter is four and is starting to notice the differences in people around her. It was a well written and illustrated book with a beautiful message that it’s okay to be different-because everyone is different. Hoping this sets the bar to have more books out there about inclusion because it is such an important thing, especially in the world we live in today.We also enjoyed reading about Sophia and her story. She’s seems like such a fierce and determined role model who can push thru just about anything! The book is very inspirational and I definitely recommend!!

I am a mother of three and also run a nonprofit serving children and adults with special needs. The story and important messages in this book resonate with all of us - regardless of our abilities. It is all about focusing on what makes each of us unique and special. Its about putting the person first. We just received our book yesterday and my kids have already asked for me to read it 3x now! They are 6 (twin boys) and 3 (lil girl) and they asked the best questions while we read. It was a total parenting win to discuss what it means to be kind, inclusive, accepting and understanding. What it means to be supportive and to look at the person, the whole person. The book also comes with awesome facts about down syndrome and provides examples of how to speak with your children about it! Its incredible! I have already bought copies for my friends and for our non profit, RAD Camp! Its a must buy, must read!

We adopted our 7 year old with Down syndrome from Serbia 2 years ago and she loved this book! It is well written, the illustrations are beautiful and I love how it is inspired by a girl who has Down syndrome. I would highly recommend this book!

This book was absolutely amazing! The illustrations are so bright and inviting and the message of the book is uplifting and inclusive! This is a must buy for every child! All kids are enough!

We were so excited to get this book in the mail!! Our son has Down Syndrome and is the same age of Sofia. We have watched Sofia’s journey over the years and are so proud that this book has been written! I loved the information about Down Syndrome and Sofia and the storyline is perfect. Differences are wonderful and we should celebrate our individualities. It’s time for everyone to stop putting people with disabilities in a box - they are a valuable part of our world and this book shows that! Every family needs this book!

Oh my goodness,we could not LOVE this book MORE!!!!! It IS the WHOLE PACKAGE!!!! Such a special•wonderful message/story,written BEAUTIFULLY,the illustrations are just gorgeous...the list goes ON!!! We love this book immensely...for all the reasons!!!! We preordered 5 copies and have already purchased 3 more!!!!Our daughter,pictured above has been glued to her copy since it arrived yesterday afternoon!!

Disability pride is missing too often in children's books about disabilities and differences. Unlike most children's books about disability, the audience in "You Are Enough" is actually the child with the disability themselves. Yes, you hope that non disabled students will read and love it too, but the book wants children with disability to take pride in who they are. Yes, YOUR ARE ENOUGH!
