so-soI 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
so-so3 ⭐ 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.

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.
