It's Okay to Be Me is a fun and clever read-out-loud book that lets
kids know that no matter who they are or how different their
interests, their uniqueness is to treasured and celebrated. Each
colorful page teaches children that diversity is a strength and not
a weakness, and helps them appreciate the differences in themselves
and others, so that friendships can blossom. Author Bahia Amarsingh
has dedicated It's Okay A Children's Series About Life Issues to
all her young readers who have in one way or another experienced a
sense of alienation because of something that makes them stand out
- and that could be almost anything. Let's celebrate our
differences
Be a witness to this island girl's spiritual journey as she
grapples with relationship woes, longs for happiness, and
re-examines her Catholic faith. Sirena Today presents a simple
story about an emotionally complex young woman from the island of
Guam, struggling to grasp the true meaning of love and hold on to
her faith in God. People thought Sirena was the cutest girl on the
beach, but she felt like the ugliest. They thought she was happy,
but she felt confused and empty inside. Feeling lost and angry,
Sirena wrestles with loneliness, while longing for someone to truly
understand her. What could heal this pain? Would a new pair of
zories, also known as slippers, do the trick? Would fleeing from
Guam to attend college in the U.S. help? Would an attentive
boyfriend change her life, or would she end up even more miserable?
In order to break through to love and center herself on the most
important one of all in her life, Sirena first must see that she
only has herself to blame for her misery. Only then can this
stubborn girl from Guam use this knowledge to her advantage.
Can saying sorry bring Sirena home again? The Sirena Today Series
presents a story about a little girl from the tropical island of
Guam, who runs away to the ocean, but is not sure if she wants to
live there forever. After yelling at her mama and disappearing in
an angry outburst, she wonders if she has made a mistake - but how
can she possibly return from the deep, dark sea? Will she turn into
a mermaid and be lost for all time? Can God's love comfort and
guide her when she is all alone? Discover the sweet lessons she
learns when you walk along the sandy shores of Guam and splash away
with Sirena today
