"With humor and heart, One of Us explores the stress of peer pressure and what is truly lost when we try to fit in. Its simple, powerful message: true friends respect what makes you who you are. This is a terrific conversation starter for parents and teachers, and a must-read for kids." (Rachel Simmons, author of Odd Girl Out and The Curse of the Good Girl) "You are one of us," Carmen tells Roberta on her first day of school. Roberta gladly sits with the rest of the straight-up hair girls, until she hears they don't play on the monkey bars. Roberta loves the monkey bars and leaps at the chance to swing with the monkey bar posse, until she hears they don't carry flowered lunch boxes. Roberta moves from clique to clique asserting her individualism until it seems she has nowhere to sit but alone. Not to worry, Roberta discovers a crew just like her - different.
