Summary

From a Newbery Medal-winning author comes a deeply moving ode to the complexity and uniqueness of every child.

In profound, uplifting verse, beloved author Matt de la Peña explores the endless possibilities each child contains: A young dancer may grow into a computer coder; a basketball player might become a poet; a class clown may one day serve as an inspiring teacher; and today’s quiet empath might be tomorrow’s great leader. Here's a profound and uplifting new classic with an empowering message for listeners of all ages: Your story is still being written.

Critic reviews

"The call to revel in the glorious patchwork that is 'us' blazes forth from this paean of acceptance."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"Celebrates [kids'] capacity to explore and change . . . conveying the heartening idea that lives of meaning emerge . . . from 'mismatched scraps accumulated over time/ and stitched together/ into a kind of patchwork.'"—Publishers Weekly
