I Am Not the Only One is a powerful and compassionate children's book that follows Amelia, a happy girl whose world is turned upside down when a dark, looming "problem" enters her life - one only she can see. As the problem grows bigger and louder, silencing her with fear and shame, Amelia struggles alone - until a chance encounter with her best friend Benji and a kind, perceptive teacher named Ms. Bridges gives her the courage to finally speak up.
With stunning watercolor illustrations and gentle, accessible storytelling, this book gives children a safe and relatable way to understand that difficult feelings and hard situations are never theirs to carry alone. It teaches that speaking to a trusted adult is not weakness - it is the bravest thing a child can do.
A vital resource for parents, caregivers, teachers, and counselors, this book opens the door to conversations about emotional wellbeing, safeguarding, and the transformative power of using your voice. Because no problem - no matter how big or small - is too big to talk about.
