This book was so CUTE oh my goodness! The illustrations were simply adorable and I loved the perspective I gained on the myriad of things children may wonder about. I think it's always a nice reminder that a child is a brand new human, learning everything from scratch, everything that feels very obvious to us, and I loved that this book reminds adults of this in a cute and fun way.

These kinds of wonderful board books are so important to child development. The language in this story is wonderful as the child explores her world, noticing everything and asking questions. Children will be validated while learning to love their own books.

I See You Wonder is a cute little board book perfect for toddlers. As a mom to an almost 3 year old, we are learning, growing, and exploring every day. "Where?", "Why?", and "How?" are asked all day long. Although I wouldn't put this book in my first grade classroom, it would be perfect for preschool classes.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of this book. Opinions expressed are my own.

Another super cute book! I didn’t love this one as much as the last, but think it was adorable. With my education background, I always like rhyming in a board book for recognition and repetitiveness.

"I See You Wonder" is a wonderful children's book that encourages kids to be curious and ask questions. The story is about a girl who explores the world and learns new things by asking lots of questions.

The pictures in the book are very cute and colorful, making it fun to look at each page. They add a lot of joy to the story and help bring it to life.

This book shows that it's good for kids to ask questions because it helps them learn and grow. It also reminds parents and teachers to support kids' curiosity.

This is a lovely book celebrating the wonder and question phase Toddlers go through. The tips at the end are helpful to encourage caregivers to celebrate curiosity.

Illustrations were cute and depicted parts of the outdoors kids would notice and ask about.

A wonderful book to understand how kids express their curiosity at a much younger age. Deborah Farmer Kris' text is relatable and takes us on a journey a toddler/younger kid experiences at that age. Jane Massey's illustrations are soft, emotive, expressive and detailed, giving a perfect visual representation of the little adventure. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed this book. The message of exploring the world with the toddler was clear, and I loved the simple illustrations. I also enjoyed that there was both a realistic and whimsical element, especially with the incorporation of all the different animals. Finally, I had a laugh at the questions, the toddler asked at the end, and I think that’s very relatable for any parent. I thought it was nice to include the caregiver tips at the end.

A big thank you to the author, Deborah Farmer Kris, Free Spirit Publishing, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read I See You Wonder, a board book for toddlers and young children. I will share my review to Amazon, Goodreads, and Barnes & Noble upon release.

I See You Wonder is about the wonder of childhood, the magic of first experiences, and the support of loved ones who protect your growth and learning. The watercolor illustrations are perfect to show the beauty of nature and draw your eye to each character the little girl is experiencing throughout the day. While she stomps in mud, follows ants, and discovers a family of ducks, her adult monitors her nearby but lets her explore. The day is full of learning new things. Kids will love the animals and will connect with silly things like stomping in a puddle. The I See You board book series is super adorable and this installment is no exception. This would make a great addition to any toddler's home library or any other library collection.

I See You Wonder is a sweet picture book that focuses on how kids engage with and interpret the world, and how grown ups can affirm their observations. The illustrations are very soft and go well with the story. I liked that it included 4 tips for how adults can help and encourage the kiddos in their lives.

Thanks to Free Spirit Publishing and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

I love this message! The " I see you" is so important!! It a great reminder to parents and caregivers to give your all to little ones especially during the time where they are seeing the world for the first time and can freely engage with their surroundings. The pictures are the pretty pastel/watercolor design that works perfectly. It's very soothing to the eye and will be a very cute to read to toddlers!
