Just as beautiful and heartwarming as the original book. I can‘t wait to watch the film tomorrow. 💖

I am giving this book to sooooo many people for Christmas this year. It is also my go-to gift for baby showers. It is a book to be savored, read only a page or two each day. Filled with simple, profound, uplifting, old-fashioned ideas on how to live a kind and caring life.

Made my final bookstore trip for the year today to pick up the two books from my Small Business Saturday order that weren‘t ready, and of course, grabbed a couple other books included this lovely companion book to Charlie Massey‘s animated story. I‘m going to save it for Jolabokaflod. I also picked up Cackle for #AuldLangSpine. 💖

Well, this was just about the most beautiful story ever

Such a beautiful book. I‘m really looking forward to seeing the animation on Christmas Day

What a sweet book!!! Loved it. Makes a wonderful present. The love is palpable and the illustrations are lovely.

“…But I‘ve discovered this-you are loved and important and you bring to this world things no one else can. So hold on.”

I never read the original version of this even though I have had it recommended to me several times. I saw this one at work and decided I needed to have it. I loved every minute of it. ❤️

Beautiful. I‘ve been considering this one for awhile and was inspired by @Kristin_Reads this morning to download both the ebook & audiobook to listen as I read. What an amazing experience proving once again a book will finally come to you at just the right time. This is brief. Don‘t pass it by. Be inspired this holiday season and every day to be kinder with yourself & others. This may provide the quiet moment you need amidst the hustle & bustle.

🎧 12-11-22 || I‘m not sure why I didn‘t pick this one up earlier but I‘m glad I did now. The end of the year holiday season seems like just the right time. On the advice of another Litsy reader, I listened to this one; it‘s delightful, with music and nature sounds and bonus commentary from the author. 🎧✨

“Hello”
#firstlinefridays

There‘s a new colorful version!

I needed a wholesome comfort read after the difficult semester I just had.

“…look how far we‘ve come” ♡

I recommend the audiobook, it has beautiful music and soothing wildlife sounds.

This is Winnie The Pooh for the modern age, aimed at both adults and children. I read a Litsy review that suggested listening to the audiobook while reading this. I wish I remembered who‘s so I could thank them cause it was definitely the right call! The audiobook was narrated by the writer/illustrator, written partly as an accessibility aide for people who can‘t see the pictures or can‘t read the words. The result is that you get some of his 👇🏼

I did the #audiobook of this because it said there was music. And the author describes some of the pictures with extra background info. And tries not to laugh when he does the mole. It's actually quite enjoyable. I would recommend it. It's only about an hour.

Is this considered a children's book? I think it is an every-age book. This touches on important concepts like friendship, loneliness, the purpose of life, who we are, and working through challenges. The illustrations are beautiful and the hand-written text is unique.

If I had to explain the feeling of this book, it is like a long hug with a loved one or a warm cup of cocoa.

Library book finished. What an absolutely charming book. It is basicly a warm hug. Lovely insights that everyone can benefit from. I loved this so very much. I'm definitely going to buy a copy of my own to keep.

Finally! Finally reading this masterpiece.

Shoutout to Libby for having this graphic novel on the app. I'm already so in love with it and I know I will cry at the end. Tears of happiness if you will. ❤

This book is all around beauty! It is going to be put in a place where anybody who walks in my house can see it, pick it up, and find simple joy.

This book was a Mother's Day gift. It is beautiful and this made me laugh out loud. "If at first you don't succeed have some cake."

"Love Brings you Home." said the Mole

Short But very Alluring fable 😇
Many thoughts are presented in a concise, clear and much easy way.
Have a good read 😊

Such an excellent book.

👌

Incredible! I‘d pick this over “The Little Prince” any day of the week. #book64of2022

This book took me half hour to read.
It is gentle and beautifully written.

This book is beautiful 😍

⭐️⭐️ • It‘s a no for me. Two stars for the illustrations. Zero stars for the written content.

"One of our greatest freedoms is how we react to things."

Needed this reminder today ❤ This book is absolutely beautiful.

Stumbled across the sweetest little book today.

"'Being kind to yourself is one of the greatest kindnesses,' said the mole."

Reread this lovely book on a whim and it resonated even more the second time. It‘s filled with advice that we all need to hear. The illustrations are beautiful, but it‘s the words that hit straight to my heart. I know I return to it many times in the future.

“When the big things feel out of control… focus on what you love right under your nose.”
