Finished this book in one sitting only stopping to wipe my eyes. I want this book to be longer!!! I wanted to spend so much more time with these sweet, sweet girls. This such a heartwarming story about friendship and empathy and it’s what the baby girls need. Now I’m off to weep a little bit more…

Definitely aimed more at 11-12 year olds than young adults / teens but there were some nice messages packed into this tiny little book
