Goodreads review by Cyndee on January 15, 2022

The illustrations grabbed me from the beginning - kind of calm, soothing book. I put it in our Bedtime/Lullabies section. Would certainly be a sweet way to say good night to your "littles".......more

Goodreads review by Opetoritse on January 03, 2022

An inspirational speech given in the second-person, making the reader the subject of Minor's poetic encouragement. The upbeat, celebratory tone is reflected in Won's glossy illustrations, brimming with deep, bright colors and joyful imagery. The art style is a pleasant mix of realistic and cartoonis......more

Goodreads review by Sue on April 07, 2024

This book is sweet and could be nice for a baby/young kids. A good baby gift. It is a lyrical and rhyming book abut how the children are special and like the sun, moon, and stars. The illustrations are lovely. I think it would make a good board book (for durability based on the likely audience).......more

Goodreads review by Dina on January 29, 2022

The illustrations are beautiful in this book - I like how different families are illustrated throughout the book. Simple text, with lines dedicated to the child reading the book. "Whether you're close, or whether you're far, your light keeps shining, wherever you are." Overall a good book.......more
