We Are All The Same Inside® was written and illustrated by Timothy D. Bellavia. The children's picture book was originally released in 2000 and won a Christoper Award nomination for Best Children's Picture Book. Using a distinctive multimedia illustrated format, readers are introduced to Sage — an alien with no outside skin — who explores human diversity and teaches that despite our external differences "we are all the same on the inside".

With the success of Bellavia’s first publication, several "We Are All The Same Inside®" educational sequel books and props have been issued, most notably the early childhood human diversity school curriculum with tolerance-teaching dolls. The We Are All The Same Inside® - Sage-doll making workshop was initially presented at the United Nations on the International Day of Tolerance on November 17, 2003.

A special updated version of the We Are All The Same Inside® book was released in 2010. The [[picture book[[ featured: Sage paper doll patterns, teacher curriculum, 10-year chronology, and rare photographs. A commemorative musical CD written and performed by Sherlie Matthews was launched in New York City on October 24, 2010 - United Nations Day.
