You Are Special follows a little wooden Wemmick who keeps collecting grey dots instead of gold stars, and the day that stops mattering to him.
Everyone in the town hands out stickers. Stars go to the clever and the pretty, dots go to everyone else, and one Wemmick has been counted out so often he believes it. Then he meets the person who made him.
Who it's for
It reads aloud in about ten minutes, so it lands with young children, but reviewers keep buying it for older ones too, and for adults. Baby showers and a child having a hard year at school come up again and again.
From the publisher
In the town of Wemmickville there lives a Wemmick named Punchinello. Each day the residents award stickers--gold stars for the talented, smart, and attractive Wemmicks, and gray dots for those who make mistakes or are just plain ordinary. Punchinello, covered in gray dots, begins to feel worthless. Then one day he visits Eli the woodcarver, his creator, and he learns that his worth comes from a different source.
