Unlike Us?

Do you dare to enter a world that adults often find difficult to talk about?

Childhood is not just about laughter and being carefree. It is also about the fear of the unknown, the shame of failure, and the sadness that no purchase can fix. As parents, we want to protect our children from every shadow, but silence doesn’t make problems disappear—it only leaves the child to face them entirely alone. Unlike Us? is a safe bridge between your experience and your child’s heart.

Grzegorz Glinka, a wordsmith and author of motivational tales, has created a guide to 33 topics that the modern world places before us.

This book doesn’t frighten—it familiarizes. It teaches that being “different” is simply a different perspective, and that courage is not the absence of fear, but the ability to ask for help and find mutual understanding within the family. The book is designed so that each of the 33 stories ends with a “Discussion Stop.” It is a space where parent and child meet to close the story together.

Discover a unique tool that ensures you never have to face a difficult topic alone.

In every chapter, you will find a Moral (the essence of the lesson), a “For You” section (questions to open the child’s heart and help them name their emotions), and a “For Parent” section (expert tips on how to react to difficult confessions and build a foundation of trust).

Navigate the map of emotions and values together, taming taboo topics one step at a time.

Inside, you will find support for topics such as:

• Mental Health: Learn how to demystify depression, anxiety, and panic attacks together.

• Body Safety: Teach your child to set boundaries and say a firm “NO.”

• Embracing Diversity: Discover beauty in autism, disability, and different family models.

• Difficult Farewells: Find peace in conversations about death, divorce, or the illness of loved ones.

• Digital Challenges: Understand social media illusions, artificial intelligence, and the niszczącą force of online hate.

The world becomes a better place not when problems vanish, but when we stop being afraid of them and start helping each other.

Invite these stories into your home. Read them slowly, paying attention to every question asked by the little listener. Because it is within those questions that the true lessons of life begin. Give yourself and your child a superpower that money can’t buy: the ability to see with the heart.
