Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Oh. My. Goodness !! This was the most precious children's book I have read in ages. Mayhaps I even teared up a bit !! 

When I got into publishing in 2017, I was so set on working in adult trade.... and then I attended a lecture from the editorial director of Greenwillow Books and my heart was swayed; I fell in love with children's literature that day. And since then, while I am still unsure as to whether or not I will have children of my own, I've been building a collection of my favorite children's books (picture books, board books). I can say, without a doubt, that this needs to be added to my collection, stat ! It is absolutely the kind of book I want to share with the parents and expecting parents in my life. It's the type of book—thoughtful and lighthearted and loving—that their kids deserve! 

P.S. As an honorary Canadian (long story lol) and French speaker, I'm so happy to support Canadian and French creators 💚 Je besoin d'une copie française tout de suite !!
