Heartfelt and timeless, Remarkably You is an inspirational manifesto about all of the things—little or big, loud or quiet—that make us who we are. Great for sharing and gifting, especially to celebrate your remarkable graduate.

New York Times bestselling author Pat Zietlow Miller celebrates individuality in her remarkable picture book about the beauty of being yourself.

With encouraging text and exuberant illustrations by Patrice Barton, readers will delight in all the ways they can be their remarkable selves.

You might go unnoticed, or shine like a star,
but wherever you go and whoever you are…
don’t change how you act to be just like the rest.
Believe in yourself and the things you do best.

“Miller and Barton encourage kids to be their best, follow their own drummers, and give their all in a book that is sure to bring to mind Dr. Seuss’ Oh, the Places You’ll Go. Adorable [and] racially diverse.” - Kirkus Reviews

“Miller writes in buoyant rhyming verses. Together, Miller and Barton offer a genuine message about individuality.” - Publishers Weekly

“Miller’s story and Barton’s illustrated characters are diverse and encourage young readers to not only be themselves, but to also do good deeds. There is an important underlying theme of treating others with respect and dignity. An excellent upbeat addition to any collection.” - School Library Journal
