Stella H. ★★★★★

My daughter has been picking this up on her own before bed, which never happens with her other books. The poems are gentle but not sugary, and a few of them got me a little teary. Lovely gift for a kid who's a bit of a worrier.

Carter I. ★★★★★

I read these poems with my 7-year-old at bedtime and she's started asking what certain lines mean, which opens up conversations I didn't expect from a kids' book. The verse flows so gently that she rarely notices we've read five poems instead of one.
