People are different! They look different, come from different parts of the world, and believe in different things. To some people you look different too! This is what makes you special. This is what makes us all special. We are all here to make the world a better place to live in because each of us brings something different to it. In If I Was A Bird What Flock Would I Fly With? psychologist Peter Sacco tells the fictional account of Billy Connors, a fifth-grader learning how to fit in at school. Billy learns that it's okay to be himself and to believe in what he believes in. Equally important, Billy learns that it's okay for others to believe in what they do as well, even if they do seem a little different. Along the way, Billy learns a valuable lesson: to accept other people for who they are and what they believe without judging them.

"All the great religions teach peace and love as the basis for human interaction and yet we seem predisposed to focus on having, and demonstrating, power over one another. Abuse and bullying are prime examples. Peter Sacco gets to the root of this and, once again, offers practical steps to finding positive solutions."
