**Whoever You Are** by Mem Fox

Every day all over the world, children are laughing and crying, playing and learning, eating and sleeping. They may not look the same. They may not speak the same language. Their lives may be quite different. But inside, they are all alike. //Whoever You Are// urges us to accept our differences, to recognize our similarities, and-most importantly-to rejoice in both.

Todos los dias y por todo el mundo hay ninos llorando y riendose, jugando y aprendiendo, comiendo y durmiendo. Puede que no todos sean iguales. Puede que no hablen el mismo idioma. Puede que sus vidas sean bastante diferentes. Pero por dentro, todos son iguales. //Whoever You// Are nos forza a aceptar nuestras diferencias y reconozer nuestras similitudes.
