"I like this book. I have mixed feelings about the message of it. When I think of what I think the author was trying to say, I feel good about it. But when I start to think of what it could actually mean from a practical standpoint, I'm not sure whether I agree wholeheartedly. Hence, just "I Liked It.""
"An excellent source of literature that discusses giving positive and negative comments to others and the effects the comments have on our self esteem. Inferencing and perspective taking are key in this author's theme."
"The topic is a seemingly simple one, about how each and every one of us is important and special. Still, not a book to be passed up. Great for teaching young ones about God's love and their uniqueness but also poignant for adults."
"I would never have picked up this book on my own, what with the unfortunate title, but I'm ever so grateful that I found it on my Unitarian Universalist minister's bookshelf. If I were Christian, this would be a 5-star book, so I recommend it to monotheists. This is basically a Sneetches with a Christian spin that had both me and my son sitting in silent contemplation and wonder, flippng through the pages and thinking more deeply about that "mystery which some people call God." It then prompted a meaningful discussion about popularity, poverty, and conformity. Definitely a thought-provoking read with a title that is sure to keep it unpopular for years to come."
