When the whole world tells the children that they will be special if they are smart, good-looking, and talented, God tells them that they are already special in a unique way. The story of this inspirational book for children is to show that it does not matter how do you look like or what you do, because You Are Special and someone loves you just the way you are. The point of “You Are Special” by Max Lucado is to tell children that God has created this world and each person uniquely. Unfortunately, there are some Wemmicks that only receive dull gray dots. They stick gold stars and dull gray dots onto each other, and the smartest, most talented and good-looking Wemmicks usually gets the gold stars. Each Wemmick has a box of golden star stickers and a box of dull gray dot stickers. The Wemmicks were created to do different things, but with seriousness.


However, they were all created from the same carver and live in the same village. Some are tall, while others are very short. Some have big mouths, while others huge eyes or noses. Carved by the woodworker Eli, the creator of Wemmicksville, each Wemmick looks different and is unique in specific terms. The Wemmicks are small wooden people living in their land Wemmicksville. The main character of the book “You Are Special” is Punchinello and his friends Splint, Lucia and Chip. Every Wemmick is unique and has a specific personality and look.
