Little Echo doesn't have a voice of his own, he's always too afraid to do anything but repeat the things that others say. But, when it really matters, he finds the strength and conviction to use his voice and it leads him to the best treasure of all. I LOVED this book! The characterization was darling and Echo's large ears won my heart. The illustrations were so vibrant and symbolic of the message. The swirling colors and bold shapes! Breathtaking! What a wonderful message in a sweet little book! I'd happily add this to my classroom library, and it would make a great read aloud!

Little Echo is a great story about a small creature who is shy and lives in fear but desperately wants to find their way out. While watching over a boy named Max from the shadows they find their voice and their bravery and learn that they are stronger than they knew and that they no longer need to live in the shadows. It’s a great story for young kids. The illustration are different and fun.

I received an electronic ARC from Penguin Random House Canada through NetGalley.
Highly detailed illustrations support this story by Rodin. Little Echo is quiet and shy. They want to join the others in the cave but fear holds them back. When a boy named Max comes treasure hunting, Little Echol finds her courage and saves Max. Together, they discover that the real treasure is friendship.
Charming story and a fun family read.

Little Echo boosts beautiful and complex illustrations It also provides a simple story of finding friendship. Overall, the plot is a little too simple and left me wanting to more of a story to hold onto as I went through the text.
