My sister bought my daughter this for Christmas, so I couldn't help picking it up yesterday given all the hype. My verdict (without sounding too Scrooge-like) is that this is indeed a book of hype. Yes, the illustrations are lovely and it's a nice message, but it all felt a little bit contrived,
If you haven't yet read it, I can save you the money by summing the message up as you are enough as you are, you're not the only one who has hard stuff to deal with and home where love and friendship are.
Well done, Charley. You hit the money train with this at just the right time.
3 stars - cute but forgettable.

like jumping on the 'be kind' bandwagon that seems so popular these days (I've always thought it's good to be kind, not because. bunch of influencers are now hash-tagging it on Instagram).If you haven't yet read it, I can save you the money by summing the message up as you are enough as you are, you're not the only one who has hard stuff to deal with and home where love and friendship are.

Beautiful and tender story with magnificent artwork.
LibraryThing member MugsyNoir
Very simplistic, with little heart. One aphorism after another with minimal story development to support them. Weak!
