I picked this up as a gift for my best friends daughter for Christmas and of course I gave it a read first. A beautiful story that even made me tear up reading, lovely message and beautifully written, the illustrations are gorgeous especially the pages depicting the day and night. I only didn't rate it five stars as I prefer children's books to having a rhyming scheme throughout but that's personal preference.
