Booklist Review

In this Spanish-language version of Sotomayor's Just Ask! (2019), differences are celebrated. How boring, she asks, would the world be if we were all the same? After sharing her own childhood experiences of feeling different because of her diabetes, she encourages readers to appreciate diversity, find common ground, and speak up. The story begins with a group of children planting a garden, and each child explains in their own voice what makes them different, such as asthma, blindness, ADHD, and so on. Meanwhile, Lopez's lush and lively illustrations in bold colors and shapes joyfully complement the rosy message. Perfect for parents sharing with their children, teachers welcoming new students, and counselors leading conversations. An easy choice for Spanish-language collections, particularly those in search of Spanish versions of already-popular English-language titles.
