About the Book



Author Joanna Gaines follows up her #1 New York Times bestselling We Are the Gardeners with The World Needs Who You Were Made to Be. This children's book, beautifully illustrated by Julianna Swaney, celebrates how creativity and acceptance can come together in a bright and beautiful adventure.



Book Synopsis



In the #1 New York Times bestseller The World Needs Who You Were Made to Be, Joanna Gaines and illustrator Julianna Swaney celebrate how creativity and acceptance can come together to make for a bright and beautiful adventure. The book follows a group of children as they each build their very own hot-air balloons. As the kids work together, leaning into their own skills and processes, to fill the sky with beautiful colors, we discover that the same is true for life--it's more beautiful and vibrant when our differences are celebrated.

Together with Joanna, you and your kids will take a journey of growth and imagination as you learn in full color that:

  • We should celebrate every child's one-of-a-kind strengths as well as teamwork and acceptance of differences

  • Everything can be made more beautiful when we share our talents and abilities

  • We should lend a helping hand and do our best to take care of one another

The World Needs Who You Were Made to Be is a vibrant picture book perfect for:

  • Ages 4-8

  • Parents, libraries, classroom story times, and discussions about diversity and being a good human being

  • Households that enjoy watching Chip and Joanna on Magnolia Network and HGTV's Fixer Upper

With plenty of pink, a bounty of blue, orange and green and yellow too, this vibrant hot-air balloon adventure celebrates every child and teaches kids that we are in this together. "You're one of a kind, and it's so clear to see: The world needs who you were made to be."

Favorite read-aloud or gift book!

This book is simple, yet profound. As the parent of a neurodivergent kid particularly, this is my favorite to either gift at birthday parties or use as a read-aloud/or class book gift.

Meh

Nice illustrations but the writing is poor, sometimes it rhymes and sometimes it doesn't. The message is kinda muddled as well and not very clear for small children. There isn't really a story.

Wonderful Book

This book is not only beautifully illustrated, the cover feels like it belongs in a classic library. The cover is thick and stamped, the paper is soft and colors are gorgeous. The story is so perfect and flows so well. My 3 and 5 yo girls made me read it twice in one night.

Perfect book for helping your kids believe in and be confident in themselves

Believing in yourself and being confident in who you are is hard, this book helps make your kids (& you) realize the world needs you just as you are. Beautifully written and illustrated, I recommend this to every parent, teacher, child, and everyone who needs a reminder that being you is absolutely perfect.

Teacher POV

I read this book the first week of school. Not only did I absolute love it, but my students did too. It brought a sense of family and the acceptance of being different and how that’s important. I loved the message and would recommend it to anyone.

Such a cute book

Got this as a baby shower gift for my god daughter. Instead of a card, I got her a self love book for her mommy to read to her, and wrote a message in the back. This book's message is just the best. The photos show beautiful diversity. I honestly choked up reading it. I feel like there are some adults who would benifit from this book as well <3
