I was going to say this may be one for the Kelly Clarkson fans. Then I read @LibrarianRyan ‘s review. So maybe not.

The illustrations are lovely - lots to explore in each one. But both the story and the storytelling are just… there… really. I‘m afraid it felt very much like what you‘d expect a celebrity picture book to feel like. #bbrc

LibrarianRyan Agree. 😁 1w

3 ⭐ I question how much help Kelly Clarkson had on this book. One it does not sound like Kelly Clarkson. Except for the lullaby. The lullaby sounds like Kelly Clarkson. This book has a decent cadence and rhymes well, but it does not sound like Kelly Clarkson. I especially say this because of how big they‘ve written Grammy award winning artist on the cover and how her biography lists all of her accolades in the music business.

LibrarianRyan It almost feels like the publishers trying to convince us that Kelly wrote this 100% on her own. I don‘t think so. It does not sound like Kelly Clarkson. I love Kelly. I love to listen to her sing, and while this book is fine I‘m not sure it would is something that would be published or be on the shelves if it didn‘t have Kelly Clarkson‘s name attached to it. 3w

This is a perfect book for teaching young children concepts of acceptance, inclusion, and love. A very beautiful book that would be amazing for young readers.
