I Am: Affirmation statements for children

By Natasha Leevi Harris

"I AM" is a vibrant picture book designed to boost children's self-esteem through positive affirmations. Each page features a colourful illustration paired with simple, empowering statements like "I am brave," "I am kind," and "I am unique".

As children read along, they are encouraged to repeat these affirmations, reinforcing their belief in themselves and fostering a growth mindset. The rhythmic text and engaging visuals create a fun and interactive reading experience, making it perfect for both parents and educators. This book serves as a daily reminder for kids to embrace their uniqueness and face challenges with confidence, promoting emotional well-being, resilience and self-acceptance.

In vibrant, colourful places where everyone is unique, "I AM" invites young readers to explore the strengths of children and animal friends that have disabilities. On a number of pages this book introduces new animal friend's such as: cheetah, who uses a wheelchair to zoom around, wallaby, who has mild to severe hearing loss but is able to hear with behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids, chick, who wears toddler glasses to be able to see the world in clear brilliant colours and bear, who wears a brace to prevent her scoliosis from worsening. Through playful affirmation statements and engaging illustrations, this book celebrates diversity, teaching children empathy and understanding while highlighting the strengths and talents of each character. With every turn of the page, readers discover that differences make the world a richer, more beautiful place.

Ideal for ages 2-12, "I AM" is a delightful addition to any child's library.
