Love this book so much! Great for non-readers. The colors and drawings are very subdued which makes it a perfect before nap/bedtime read. I love the extra stuff written for caregivers in the back of the book. There is so much to be done with this book that it will be one that could be reached for again and again.
My daughter thrived on routine and always wanted to know the day's itinerary. This book story has a distinct beginning, middle and end; As well as the events in the story being linear.
Validating a toddler's feelings is so important and fosters emotional intelligence. Really take the time to delve into this book and you will see all the possibilities.

Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC! Bravo!

This book is perfect for your little one. It is a sweet story and the drawings are delightful.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this ARC.

This is a sweet book with amazing drawings, I loved them! The book ends with helpful tips for caregivers, which I love. The book is happy and positive.

The book was beautifully written. The author made careful word choices that were very impactful. Overall, the book was well written and I did really enjoy it.

What an endearing book for children and parents to read together. We go through a child’s day from the parent’s perspective.

The book was full of vibrant and engaging illustrations throughout.

There were even 4 tips for caregivers at the end. So it really is a book for the whole family.

Before nap time for the two little boys, we do story time. 📖📚Or try to each day 🤪 And today since it was rainy, windy and cold, we did more than normal. The boys LOVED these books. All of them were such cute stories and had fun illustrations. My oldest son asked lots of great questions. My middle son said, “again mommy again!!!” My favorite was Violin of Hope. It was all about the holocaust. Such a great book for elementary school teachers with that topic. It was so heartfelt and had such sweetness to it. The Big Book of Useless Knowledge had my oldest son just bursting with questions, because it was so fun!! I use to teach preschool for five years, so a fun new children’s book is always a joy for me to share with the boys before rest time. Add these to your summer reading lists!

I found it very hard to rate children's books so everything is a 5 star read for me!!
I really loved this book, the illustrations are so beautiful and captivating that I found myself smiling through every page I read.
Super cute and I loved the last pages with notes for caretakers. It was a very nice detail.
Amazing cute book.

This book is adorable! The bright colors, rainbows, and beautifully illustrated child are wonderful. I can see how a book like this could be fantastic for a young child with sensory challenges to help them connect words with actions. A book like this would be fantastic in helping them with communication in a happy positive way. :)

Such a beautifully illustrated and cute read! I read this with my kids even though they are definitely not toddlers anymore and even they thought it was a super cute read. I especially loved the little tips at the end.

This was a super cute quick and sweet child’s read.

I really enjoyed the four tips at the end also ♥️ illustrations were great also

Absolutely love this book! It's a great resource for caregivers to learn how to help their children feel more comfortable and seen! The author does a fantastic job with the simple sentence structure and the section that is for caregivers for their own further knowledge is wonderfully written!

This was a cute children's book. I read it with my almost 3 year old. She loved the rainbows and rhymes.

This was SO CUTE!!

The art style of the illustrations is so gentle and lovely. The main character’s design is very subtle and sweet.

Very lovely little book about small joys and gratitude.
