I knew to expect beautiful pages and moving words but I was still surprised at how much it touched me! I now want to gift it to everyone, friends and family alike. And it doesn't matter what ages because it speaks of a lesson we all learn at different ages in life and one we need reminding of. So So SO good!!

A great story and message for children. The illustrations are beautiful and the quality of the book feels and looks nice but sadly there were issues in printing the text on some pages. There’s ink smudging and text is off. Look at examples in the attached pictures. For this I have given 4 stars and hope amazon will replace and the manufacturer has resolved the printing issue.
