PASADENA, Calif. - s4story -- Representation matters, but books featuring children with challenges usually have a story that exclusively revolves around that specific issue, which can be limiting for children that want to see themselves in a different story and context.

In Perfect the characters just happen to have certain challenges (including cleft lip, a port wine stain, a limb difference and more) but they are exploring self-love, dealing with emotions, resilience and friendship. In the tradition of such books as "I am Enough", "I Am Love: A Book of Compassion" and "Listening with My Heart", Perfect explores self-love in a kind and practical way that children will be able to grasp and put to immediate use. The diverse cast of characters come from a wide range of backgrounds, which is also important for representing a multicultural society.
