Compare&Contrast(;

The two books that I've realized are really alike are The Skin I'm In By Sharon G. Flake and Be True To Yourself By Amanda Ford, simply because they both talk about how being true to yourself and loving the person you are is important, for example in Be True To Yourself By Amanda Ford it talks about how to not judge others based on there image or just judging people overall, This compares to the story The Skin I'm In By Sharon G. Flake because in this story Maleeka and her friends all judged her teacher without knowing her based on her image, but then realizes that what they were doing was wrong because Maleeka as well was judged and teased based on how she dressed, which was with clothes hand made by her mother, so little by little she began to realize that judging others is not the right thing to do. This actually reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from The Golden Rule which is "One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself".
