'This book has EXCELLENT vocabulary🌟Words like throb, ceaseless, plopped, trawled, luminous & frisson. They are sprinkled in with easy to understand text, many times my 5 year old was able to guess the meaning of the bigger words by re-reading the sentence'-INSTA@ paperboundjess

'A flower-loving child helps a grouchy neighbor blossom...
#kindness can soften the hardest hearts...

We miss out when we make snap judgments...

A vibrant reminder to look beyond appearances.'
