create a beautiful image for the song, which lyrically

we are all one and each beautiful. Just as the different beads make up the
beautiful necklace, so do individuals make up a classroom, school, and world. This book and song is a reminder for all of us to be the bead that makes the necklace shine even brighter. It will be a great discussion starter in classrooms and families alike. It is a positive reminder for us to see the commonalities among our differences and to celebrate both."
