I’m (Mostly) Happy Being Me

Author: Anna MilbourneIllustrator: Åsa Gilland

When a little boy recognises all his friends’ talents but not his own, he lacks self-esteem. However, through spending time with his mum and dad, he discovers that there is more to being a good person than just being good at one thing. This picture book features a mixed-heritage lead character and a diverse array of cast characters, including a wheelchair user. It's a useful picture book for discussing self-esteem and self-worth.
