This was the shortest book that I've read in all my life. I thought it would be a great comic with an important message, but not. 24 pages of cute pictures but nothing else. And I don't think this comic has a great message to give. But it's my own opinion.

This was a cute book with great illustrations and no words, so I think its gather more to infants and toddlers so they focus more on the illustrations.

While the story does not have words, it allowed my son and I to have a conversation about saying sorry and why it's important to recognize when we make mistakes.

Cute book!

I think that the illustrations are very pretty. It might seem that this book does not have a message, because there is almost no text. However, it might be very helpful for children to understand that it is important to apologize, to assume our mistakes and (sometimes) by doing so we can move forward, we will be freer.

I love the possibilities for reading, writing, and conversation contained in this book. Enjoyable art and thoughtful storytelling.

This book is very short but contain an important message, a message "locked up" in the single word of the volume. The art is marked by soft strokes and just 2 colors, this features create a sweet atmosphere.
I'd recommend it for child from 4 years old.

As a Special Ed teacher, I can see how this book would be useful to teach children who struggle with more complex social situations this concept. The color scheme and the illustrations were very appealing to the eye. I'd recommend it for a social worker or psychologist to use with students who may need it.

Very cute little story! Not much word in it that's for sure, but the message reach the reader anyway and it was really nice. I also like the minimalist color choice and art style which was beautiful! I like it and will recommend it!

A beautifully simplistic way to teach children a valuable lesson. A children’s book with a single word that is beautiful and profound.

Being able to address big concepts/ideas simply is a skill that few people can harness but the author does here. I was pleasantly surprised by this book.
