This book is short and small and oh-so-sweet. It’s great for gifting to a friend or loved one who shares your nostalgia for children’s books or who perhaps needs a gentle reminder that children’s books can ignite the imagination, reinforce a sense of justice, and expand our perspectives on the world – all in a playful, emotionally unapologetic, and visually appealing manner.
