Danny the dinosaur has a problem. Others make him feel weird because he is so tall and has an extra-long neck. Sad that he can't fit in, Danny decides to run away and hide. On his journey to find a hiding place, Danny meets a cast of characters who all share one thing in common-they are different too. One by one, they remind Danny that being different isn't something to be sad about; it is something to be celebrated and embraced. In the end, Danny learns an important lesson about life, and more importantly, he discovers how being different can open the door to making new friends.
Olivia Grimes grew up in Lakeland, Florida and penned Everybody's Different as a part of a writing assignment during her middle school years. The idea for the book came from her firm belief that every person was unique and should be celebrated for their
differences, not ridiculed or excluded. Her passions in life were family, friends, Disney, Tom Hardy, traveling, ice cream, and doing exactly what she wanted. She possessed a brilliant
mind, a wicked sense of humor and an
inclusive spirit. Olivia left this world way too
early when she passed away at the age of 16
due to a tragic accident. In her honor, Olivia's family facilitated the publishing of Everybody's Different in hopes that her spirit of acceptance and inclusion will live on for generations to come.
Christopher T Evans is an artist with a lifelong love for drawing. Born and raised in Hellertown, Pennsylvania, he grew up with pencil in hand, constantly drawing and creating. Seeking new horizons, Christopher moved to Florida to pursue his college education, where he coincidentally honed his artistic skills and turned his passion into a
profession. Now, he feels incredibly grateful to bring stories to life through his illustrations. For Christopher, there's nothing
more rewarding than collaborating with authors, hearing their stories, and
being blessed to transform their ideas and dreams into vibrant, captivating visuals.
