About Your Special Voice
This empowering board book inspires young readers to use their own special voice to make a difference in the world.
If you want to make a difference,
but you don't know where to start
Begin by searching way deep down
to find what's in your heart
Whether your voice shines through singing, drawing, or dancing--whether it's soft or loud, kind or proud--everyone has a voice that can effect change. This empowering and heartfelt message is conveyed through beautiful, lyrical rhyme that will encourage even the youngest readers to think about what's important to them.
