Customer Reviews

You've got to love a title like this

This is a gem of a book. As a mom, I love the main idea about hope for a human's potential, as well as the potential of everything around us (e.g. a fiddle makes beautiful music; clouds bring rain; a gooey larva makes a butterfly). However, my soon-to-be-3 daughter, who really loves all kinds of books, is less enthusiastic about this one than I am...But I'm holding out. I think it's one she'll appreciate more when she's a little older, true to the advertised age range for this book. My appreciation to the talented author for this family treasure.
