Or can he?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReuben and his best friend think it's impossible to tell Esmé and Eunwoo apart! They both have the same dark hair, are both short, and they even wear the same school uniform. Except that once Reuben starts to think about it, of course he knows who is who. But the girls have a surprise in store for him. He and his best friend look more like than they realise!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this masterful picture book about race and perception, Nothing Alike shines a light on the tricky topic of micro-aggressions and stereotyping, with the wry humour, child-centredness and friendship dynamics of Who's Your Real Mum?. Can Reuben learn to really see the girls as individuals and thereby be a better friend?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e---\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNothing Alike is based on a true story, and a common experience among Asians. Author Zewlan Moor was continually mistaken for another Asian writer colleague, despite them looking nothing alike. In a curious twist of fate, Zewlan’s son came home from his new school and could not tell his two Asian classmates apart. And so her idea of this picture book about race, perception and stereotyping was born.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hardie Grant Children's Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43931219329160,"sku":"9781761212239","price":24.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/3443\/4440\/files\/nothing-alike-9781761212239-7564027.jpg?v=1754999918","url":"https:\/\/littlelostbookshop.com.au\/products\/9781761212239-nothing-alike","provider":"The Little Lost Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
