This sweet, short book is filled with bold illustrations of girls and their families. Each page pairs an illustration with a letter from a grownup. The letters may be from a parent who misses her or someone who wants to give a gentle reminder or affirmation.
This would be a nice book to read at bed or while snuggling your favorite girl. It also makes a great gift, as there's a page at the end to write your own letter to your daughter.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC.
This book is absolutely adorable. Each page is a little note/life lesson for not only daughters, but all children. Messages about loving your body, your self, your friends, and the Earth are communicated in easy to understand text and beautiful illustrations. I can't wait to use this as inspiration to write a quick letter to my own darling daughter and son.
Letters To My Darling Daughter is a sweet story with messages to empower young children. The messages throughout the book are universal and focus on qualities any parent would want their child to posses. The book would make a sweet gift and would make the perfect book to share with your daughter during story time.
Letters to My Darling Daughter is an uplifting and inspiring children’s book.
Every parent would benefit in buying this book as it captures important messages along each page.
It teaches daughters to be strong but not afraid to show emotions; to love your body; to be a good friend and make powerful choices.
I love at the end, parents can write in their own letter. What a beautiful keepsake.
Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review. I recommend this book.
I loved the illustrations in the book, they are really great and lovely to look at. They bring the book to life, they are beautiful and look so natural and are really in keeping with the theme of the book.
As a mum this book was just wonderful, it says everything I say to my six year old daughter and it is one that she can keep and read at any point to know how much she is cared about and loved too. The book has a lot of positivity and it is really encouraging as well.
It is 5 stars from me for this one, I really loved it as a mum and would have loved to receive a copy myself when I was younger too as it makes a great keepsake – very highly recommended!
This book had such a beautiful message, I don’t have children but have a young niece and have been discovering more children’s books that I can share with her. This is one of those books! This is definitely a book that even as an adult the message is so meaningful and things we also need to hear.
What a sweet book, I wish I would have received as a little girl. From someone who didnt receive much attention from their father as a child, I would relish getting this book. It teaches a child that its okay to be yourself and love yourself. Such positive things to learn at a young age!
Sweet book with affirming and positive messages to inspire young girls while they grow up. I like the design with envelopes and notes, and the personalised final page is a lovely touch!
As a mother of a daughter, this was a very cute book with empowering messages. I especially loved the illustration of the dogs -well done! I think this would be a great book to have on the shelf of young girls ages 5-12. I could even see an older girl come back to it to remember the words - I found it motivating as an adult! Loved the blank page to personalize to your own child.
This was a really sweet book with a lovely message at its heart. The illustrations were bright and beautiful and easy to engage with and I loved that at the end of the book there was space to write your own messages to your daughter. My little girl is only 3 months old but this is the kind of book I want to cherish with her as she grows
This book was so beautiful. From the illustration to the message. I have been wanting to write letters like this to my daughter and leave little notes. With her getting into her preteens it makes me want to write to her even more.
Five stars. An oh-so-beautifully-illustrated gift book from a loving mother to her growing little girl. Heartfelt words of affection, hope, dreams, and guidance fill the pages of this unique offering. Reminders about loving others well, standing up for truth, and having courage are all there.
There's a page in the back (a great idea) where a mom can add words of her own. Some moms might want to add a reminder that not only does her daughter have a loving caring mama who prays she will grow up to be a strong, unique woman who loves others well . . . but that she also has a Heavenly Father who sees her too.
This is such an adorable children's book. The illustrations are so lovely. I have a toddler daughter and will definitely be looking to get a copy of this for her book collection. A lot of the messages are simple and at the same time, so important for little girls to hear and internalize. This book provides another vehicle for those messages to be communicated in an easily digestible way.
The formatting is fun, with a lot of the messages couched in illustrations that make them actually look like letters. The illustrations overall are colorful and engaging. And there is a good representation of illustrations to allow for many little girls to find a character that they can relate to.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an eARC to read and review!
I truly enjoyed reading this book with my daughter. I loved the life lessons and the heartfelt letters from the dad and it gave me some more motivation to do little things to make sure my daughter knows how loved and important she is and what she is capable of.
This book was super cute and I could see a parent who has to travel giving this to their daughter! I loved the illustrations and representation in this book. It had very positive messages and affirmations for young girls. I also liked how the text was laid out in written letters to a daughter on each page. It was a very nice addition to have a space at the end to write a personal message!
Postcards/letters from Mom to her daughter with words of encouragement. Light, lively, useful and encouraging, the book is well written and brightly illustrated for an easy and affirmatively enlightening message. Recommended.
Every child needs to feel special and loved. In this story the Mother leaves tiny letters to her daughter expressing her unconditional love, words of encouragement and a place of belonging.
This would make a perfect gift for a new Mom to read to her tiny babe.
Sweet book and a lovely concept. Life lessons and words of wisdom for daughters. This would be a wonderful baby shower gift.
Perfect for that mother/daughter bond that every girl deserves! So sweet. I would def gift this to my baby girl.
This was such a precious book that I can definitely see myself buying for my future daughter. I loved the art so much and the message of the book.
