✨ Gifted ✨
I wanted to love this dearly, because as a practitioner I always find joy in children’s energies and their (lack of) filter. But unfortunately, this wasn’t for me 😢 I wonder if being able to read it in French is far better!
I am giving it 2.5 out of 5 stars, because there were moments where I could see the magic ✨ Maybe something to come back to or one to understand others’ perspectives on! 😳 Thank you!

Either I'm not smart enough or this book is absurdly overrated. Probably both.

This book has been my comfort book since I was in 2nd grade. It is inspiring and full of beautiful life lessons. It is written with great prose and I am happy that I was able to read it in its original form. It is most definitely a must-read before dying.
