Why do you look that way? This is the true story of real diversity and inclusion shared by an albino whose appearance caused unwanted and unfortunate bullying growing up. James Morehead and his daughter Andrea Allen, an Emmy-award winning television journalist and author, explain to children and people of all ages about albinism and some of the hurtful experiences he endured growing up. But most importantly, they share the lesson that our unique differences and abilities are part of God's master plan to foster appreciation and acceptance of others. While he may be "The Brightest Star" among us, Morehead's inspirational story reminds everyone that they have a special purpose to use their life to positively impact the world, and it all begins with self-love. This book is an amazing example of persevering, believing in yourself, and achieving your dreams against all odds. #Kindness #Value #WorthThe foreword is written by Marvin Jones III, one of the most recognized actors who has albinism. He's known for his amazing portrayal of the character Tobias Whale in The CW superhero series "Black Lightning," and as the voice of Tombstone in the superhero film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.Award-winning ABC News Weekend Anchor Linsey Davis endorses the book writing: "Part imagination with a dash of spirituality and a healthy serving of acceptance sprinkled with hope throughout. The Brightest Star has all the ideals of humanity baked right in. It is the recipe any parent would hope their child would follow as they learn about and embrace people who may not look like them. It is not only a reminder of God's grace and presence in our lives, but a testament to His ability to dream bigger dreams for us than we have for ourselves. It is a much-needed light to illuminate not just what it's like to grow up as an albino, but it is a love letter to us all about our value and beauty as God's magnificently made creations." The illustrator is Stephanie Hider from Oklahoma. She magnificently captures the heart and compassion of the story as her inaugural autobiography illustration project.
