"Eyes That Kiss in the Corners"- Joanna Ho

大家的孩子們都是在什麼時候開始發現自己的外表與別人不同的呢？

我自己是一直到孩子開始分享他們的自畫像並強調有著棕色的眼睛、深色的頭髮時，

我才意識到孩子們開始認識自己的特別之處。

故事中的主角發現自己的眼睛的形狀像是「親吻臉頰兩側般」的細長型、有著茶葉般閃閃發光的雙瞳。她喜歡自己跟媽媽、妹妹、阿嬤相似的雙眼，像是掛在天上彎彎得月亮又像是一閃一閃的星星。

每一天都記得醒自己還有身邊的人，你的與眾不同是如此的獨一無二又美麗的存在。

"Eyes That Kiss in the Corners" is a children's picture book written by Joanna Ho and illustrated by Dung Ho. It tells the story of a young Asian girl who embraces her unique features and celebrates her cultural heritage. The protagonist, who has traditional almond-shaped eyes, notices that her eyes are different from those of her classmates and friends. However, she takes pride in her family's heritage and cherishes the qualities that make her special. With the support of her loving family, she embraces her identity, feeling beautiful and confident. Through the vibrant illustrations and heartfelt narrative, the book promotes self-acceptance, diversity, and the importance of celebrating one's cultural roots.
