Book Overview
Balloons come in a range colours, shapes and sizes. All are balloons, but they are different on the outside. Each coloured balloon inspires different flights of fantasy and fun. What Do I Love More Than My Balloon? is a story of inclusion and acceptance. Through rhythm and rhyme, Linda El Samad presents the beauty of the world made all the more vibrant by our individuality.
What Do I Love More Than My Balloon? presents its message through play and imagination, reminding us that in our uniqueness, we are brilliant. This colourful children's book asks a simple question that encourages children to be proud of who they are and to embrace others. Though some seem different on the outside, our essence is the same.
Linda El Samad holds herself to a high standard of excellence in her endeavours. She takes a humble approach to her projects, acknowledging when improvements are needed. Married for thirty years, this mother of six values authenticity and sincerity as the building blocks taking a children's book to a whole new level. Turning her talents to writing, Linda has been dedicated to improving her craft. With a supportive family, friends and mentors, Linda has found herself reaching higher and honing her skills. The result is an imaginative and colourful book that is full of meaning.
As a Muslim Australian from a Lebanese background, diversity and inclusivity is something she embraces wholeheartedly. What Do I Love More Than My Balloon? is Linda's first published children's book. With a vision that has been inspired by the teachings of the Quran, she hopes that by using balloons of different colours as a metaphor for skin colour and ethnicity, she will enrich the culture of inclusivity.
