What a lovely children’s book about the power of words.
“Words like second chances, words like third chances.”
What a wonderful message to teach children. The illustrations were calming and my son loved finding the hidden words on each page.

Thank you to Riverlet Press and Netgalley for the ARC of this novel; all opinions are my own.

Words is a cute book with great message about the importance and power of words. The illustrations were really interesting and I enjoyed the little “Easter eggs” of details on each page. Very cute and thought provoking book for kids!

Aww, this is such a sweet picture book. It beautifully demonstrates the power and weight of words, how they can make you feel, and the importance of them. In doing so, this book provides a wonderful resource for social-emotional intelligence for young children.

Beyond its message, this book is very pretty. The art style is gentle, yet eye-catching.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

I was surprised at how good this was.

This is my third short children’s book I’ve read and definitely my favourite so far. It has a really good message that I think is understandable for young children, though I think it would take some explaining by parents for them to fully get it. A couple more lines about how words may hurt sometimes or how you may say something you don’t mean I think would really drive the message home for kids. The illustrations are fun and engaging. Overall for a children’s book, it’s great!
