Just Like Me Audio Collection

Just Like Me; Grandma's Purse; Becoming Vanessa; Nesting Dolls; Shake It Off!

An ode to the girl with scrapes on her knees and flowers in her hair, and every girl in between, this exquisite treasury will appeal to fans of Dear Girl and I Am Enough and have kids listening through it to find a poem that's just for them.

I am a canvas
Being painted on
By the words of my family
Friends
And community

From Vanessa Brantley-Newton, the author of Grandma's Purse, comes a collection of poetry filled with engaging mini-stories about girls of all kinds: girls who feel happy, sad, scared, powerful; girls who love their bodies and girls who don't; country girls, city girls; girls who love their mother and girls who wish they had a father. This book invites listeners to find themselves and each other within.

Rhyming and enthusiasm

I expected to hear only one book and it appeared to be May works by Vanessa. Excellent rhyming and I love a story with a happy ending. I will purchase the books to see the illustrations. Thank you Vanessa for being brave enough to share your work with the world! Love it.
