I accessed a digital review copy of this book from the publisher.
I read this as an audiobook. Just listening to it, the book was ok. I think it would work better as a print book or audio and print, but not just audio.

A short and inspirational story for all children of any age. You are never too old - or young - to create goals and work towards doing great things.

*received for free from netgalley for honest review* Really cute audiobook, i'm sure the artwork is as beautiful as the words!

This audiobook makes me excited to se the illustrations in the book that go along with the words. I think if little ones close their eyes and just listen to the audiobook, though, they'll come up with some great imagery for their little imaginations.

I love the message of this well told motivational book. This is a book to listen to/read daily. It is the right level of positivity.

With great rhythm and a gentle, encouraging voice, Amerie presents YOU WILL DO GREAT THINGS for young and early readers. Great for bedtime and morning rides to school. @JozefSyndicate

A very cute and inspirational book. The pacing was a bit slow for my current group of student, but it was an excellent bedtime story for my son.

This is a beautiful affirming offering from singer Amerie. The narration by her is wonderfully done. The message is uplifting for children and adults alike. I will be gifting my niece with a copy.

This is a beautiful little story that contains all the hopes we have for the next generation. All our actions have the possibility to change the world - maybe in big ways - maybe in small - but the potential is there for everyone. I listened to the audio of this story and I wish I had been able to see the pictures because I love the cover. Thank you Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for allowing me to listen to this story.

Everyone should listen to this every morning for empowerment, reassurance, mediation or self determination. Excellent poem I can’t wait to see as a picture book (I listened to the audiobook on NetGalley and it was powerful!)

I listened to the audio of this book and it was beautifully done! The writing of the story was very moving I loved the message. The audio production and the author narrating was amazing and made the story feel almost magical. After I listened the first time I played it for my 5 and 7 year old and they keep begging to listen over and over again. Definitely recommend for all of the kiddos out there.

I loved this little audiobook. There were sounds that added the perfect background to this uplifting story that encourages its reader that there is so much good coming. I am excited to now pick up the book to see the illustrations too!

You Will Do Great Things by Amerie is a wonderful audiobook that is inspirational and motivational. I think that this would be a wonderful novel to read to my class and my little one. Just from this cover, which is beautiful, I feel that this audiobook should be a companion to the physical book so that students can experience the bright, beautiful colors that are on the cover.

Thank you to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

You Will Do Great Things
by Amerie
The audible version is bright with laughter and rocket ships, allowing the children to connect to their possibilities. The story shows endless encouragement. I would believe the pictures are just as inspiring.
This would be a great bed time story for parents to play to remind their children of their ability and importance.

You Will Do Great Things as an audiobook is magical. The reminder to children that they are enough and they are capable of amazing things is absolutely lovely. The narrator's voice is so soothing. Highly recommend! I would love to see what the hardcopy book is like, I bet the illustrations would be beautiful!

Thank you to Macmillan Audio, Macmillan Young Listeners and NetGalley for this ALC!

I listened to this book with my two 7-year-olds. They (and I) thoroughly enjoyed it. As one of my twins said, “the beginning was really cool because it said you can do great things” which made her “feel supported for the future.”
I think this is a book that could be read every night to help encourage children and remind them no matter how busy or lost they may feel in life, they can do amazing things and we as parents (or grandparents or guardians) will be there with them to help guide and watch as they do wonderful things.
