Different- A Story About Loving Your Neighbor by Chris Singleton
Summary: The story follows a young boy named Obinna who feels out of place after his family moves from Nigeria to Charleston (where the Author is from). Author Singleton dedicated the book to his mother’s memory, but included a character based on her who tells Obinna, “Never be ashamed of who you are. You are beautifully and wonderfully made.” It basically just teaches every kid to love people no matter what their differences are.
Chris Singleton is a former professional baseball player in the Chicago Cubs organization as well as an inspirational speaker who has traveled the country passionately speaking to over 60,000 students.
