Happy in Our Skin

Written by Fran Manushkin and Illustrated by Lauren Tobia
Is there anything more splendid than a baby’s skin? Cocoa-brown, cinnamon, peaches and cream. As children grow, their clever skin does, too, enjoying hugs and tickles, protecting them inside and out, and making them one of a kind. A story of the human family — and how wonderful it is to be just who you are!
