Review
★ "A bustling celebration of body positivity that lovingly features bodies, skin, and hair of all kinds . . . Feder chooses clear and unapologetic language to describe body characteristics, challenging the negative connotations that are often attached to those bodies . . . Depicting societally marginalized human bodies in all their joyful, normal glory, this book is cool." —Kirkus, starred review
★ "With such a joyfully inclusive range of humans, all taking part in community and taking pleasure in each other’s company, it’s hard to imagine a stronger statement of body affirmation and pride." — Publishers Weekly, starred review
★ "[T]his unabashed promotion of body positivity packs a punch and reminds readers to respect and love every body—including their own. This is a timely message with universal applications." — Booklist, starred review
★ "With colorful pages of people in all shapes and sizes, this book both serves as a joyous read-aloud for small and large groups and as a book for individual study and discovery . . . With lilting dancelike rhythm through word repetition and brightly colored detailed images, this is a timely and worthy addition for every collection." —SLJ, starred review
"Feder's rhyming text and double-page spreads filled with all kinds of people celebrate the variety of our physical attributes. The joy-filled cartoon illustrations pack a lot of bodies into the settings (e.g., subway car, pool, backyard barbecue) and offer plenty to consider." —Horn Book
"This inclusive book shows and celebrates all types of bodies in the park, in the pool, at a party—everywhere. That’s exactly where all our bodies are . . . . It’s truly transformative not only to be seen by others but to see yourself. To see yourself just as you are. To see yourself included. To see your body as good, as cool . . . a great resource to start conversations about fatphobia and anti-fat bias and to help a kid struggling with their self-image." —Lisa Fipps, author of Starfish

The diversity and representation in this book are fantastic. The drawings are super cute. I love all the hidden features we found while reading, like how on one page, all the dogs match their owner’s hair color/style.
Thank you for making such a fun, educational, and heartfelt book. I can’t understate how amazing and important this type of representation is.
Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2023
Two points of consideration: there is a page where a mother is breastfeeding and another where two babies are pictured without clothes (very small parts of the illustrations). If “nudity” is an issue for you/your school, be aware. Second, the word “fat” is used once. If that word isn’t used in your home/school, be aware. I was asked by my director to cover up the babies (I drew shorts on them with marker) and to skip the word “fat” while reading.
This awesome book still gets 5 stars for diversity, representation, message, and coolness factor.
