My Thoughts
Reminicent of Oh the Places You'll Go!, This book takes a positive futuristic view of a young life's ups and downs. With fun rhyming text, little ones will want to hear it read over and over again. I liked how the child in the book grows up throughout the book and she is seen achieving goals and overcoming challenges. The illustrations are very sweet and soft around the edges.
