Can I Build Another Me?

5 year old really enjoyed this book and the illustrations are lovely. It was a great prompt for discussion about what makes our personalities different and what makes you, you.

I bought this book for my child in anticipation of a likely ADHD diagnosis. Perfect for celebrating their individuality, unique and brilliant character, talents and gifts. Simple yet perfect for opening up conversation. Pictures are brilliant in supporting the text too. My favourite book for children of this summer.

Purchased this book after buying another title from Yoshitake, ‘Is it an apple?’, I am hooked on this author! Fabulous and humorous illustrations and thought provoking text. My 4 and 6 year old sons love discussing each element of what makes us us, a complex subject made accessible for young minds. I’ve since purchased two more titles by Yoshitake, both equally engaging!

Lovely book about self awareness both for children and adults. With humor and excellent illustration.

A lovely book that explores what makes a person. My son enjoyed reading this immensely as it was both funny and interesting. Lovely illustrations too.

What a beautiful book to teach children about identity and what really makes you, you! Fantastic illustrations and supporting text which would appeal to audiences both younger and older.

This book is wonderful, brings about so much discussion. With all abilities. A must for every classroom.

Lovely idea for a book and well illustrated but lines such as “I can’t… understand girls” are sexist and should be said as that when read with children. Also the double page on ‘I was made by my mum and dad’ is fine but then to say they had a mum and dad of their own and tracing the family backwards are all mums and dads- there are lots of other ways babies are made and this should be represented, especially if being used in schools. It is such a shame. If these could be amended and reprinted I would keep this book on the curriculum for my class but teaching it’s ok to be sexist is not OK!

Its great

Simpatico e geniale. Una storia divertente che può essere utilizzata come guida per numerose attività con bambini dai 4-5 anni.

My grandson loves this book. It is clever and inventive and fun to read to him and fun to discuss with him. I wish other books by the same author were available on Amazon.

I used this with my grade 2 students and we wrote about it making up a new me. They loved it.

日本語版も持っていますが、良い翻訳だと思います。子供に教材として使うのに、「日本語版と読み合せる」のか、「英語版だけで読んでいく」のか悩みます。まず、文法をしっかり学んでから教材として使うのか、それともこの本を使いながら文法を学んでいくのかでも悩みます。とりあえず、子供に渡して「これ、なんて書いてあるの？」と訊かれたら応えつつ、文法的なことは言及していません。
