I don't know if I'd read this one in class....I'm trying to get my students to understand that we don't comment on people's bodies. Then again, when they get teased about something, it's good to find the confident aspect of it.
Goodreads says:
"Highly recommended." —School Library Journal

This lyrical celebration of self-esteem, perseverance, and loving the skin you're in will inspire all children to appreciate their spots or what makes them different. Perfect for pairing with I Am Enough by Grace Byers, Remarkably You by Pat Zietlow Miller, and I Am Every Good Thing by Derrick Barnes.
