A Head Above the Rest

It's time to celebrate what
makes you different.

This heartfelt story helps children understand that being different isn’t something to hide — it’s something to celebrate. Inspired by Krista’s own childhood experiences, the book encourages kids to embrace who they are and treat others with kindness.

for the majority of my childhood, I tried everything to fit in, shrink, and push attention away from myself.

Over time, I realized something important: every one of us has insecurities. In fact, that might be the one thing we all truly have in common — we’re all different.
 

I wrote this book to help children learn early what took me time to understand: that loving yourself for exactly who you are is one of the most important lessons you can learn.

 

My hope is that every child who reads it feels confident standing tall in who they are.

Growing up, I was always

It is a great book for any child and especially for children struggling with identity. I donated the book to my church school to be used as a teaching aide.
