I absolutely love the children's books that Kathie Lee Gifford writes! Hello, Little Dreamer teaches kids of all ages that God places dreams inside of us that are unique to each individual. The author teaches that dreams take time sometime, but don't give up on them or God. I love that the author pointed out that God also dreams. The illustrations were beautiful. This book would be a wonderful addition to a family devotional or to be read in a classroom setting. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book! (This review is also on GoodReads.)

This book is so darling! I love the adorable illustrations and the message of this little book is sweet. We enjoyed it whole heartedly!

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of this book! I adored this picture book. The illustrations and story were great. I just wish the word God was not used so much. I work in a Children's Room of a public library and in our community we have all different types of patrons with different beliefs and I don't know if this would be utilized because of the use of the word. I still thoroughly enjoyed the story! Thank you again!

A very calm, sweet, lovely illustrated children's book.
I saw Kathie Lee Gifford's name and just couldn't resist swooping it up for my precious little 4 year old.
She deeply enjoyed the illustrations and spent most of her time looking at them and smiling.
We aren't a Christian home and don't tend to bring a lot of God-heavy content into our library yet but this book was gentle and easy to introduce ideas with.

Hello, Little Dreamer is a children's book that is based on the assumption that each child is unique, that each child has a special destiny that is not always easy to recognize, and that this destiny is like a seed planted by God in the fertile soul of a child. The colorful and engaging illustrations are used to underscore these points to young audience.

I wondered at times, if these concepts are too abstract for a young child. Perhaps if a story could be shared about a child struggling to come terms with their "destiny", it can be relatable. However, as it is now, it can be a conversation starter with children about these fundamental themes.

It's beautifully drawn.
The meaning of this book is to encourage kids to try new things.
It's a good book to read before bedtime.

Hello, Little Dreamer is an adorable picture book for children. Each page is beautifully illustrated to catch even the smallest child’s eye. The words are just perfect to encourage children to follow the dreams that God puts on their hearts, but explaining that it does take time. These are words that I have always tried to instill in my own children. A perfect book for small children, but one they can refer back to in the years to come.

Gorgeous illustrations - probably my favorite thing about this book! Very intentional in representing a lot of ethnicities and animals.

Message was sweet, rhyming was a little clunky reading it out loud. Overall makes a great gift and addition to a nursery or classroom.

With cute and colorful pages this sweet story encourages children to believe in their dreams, at the same time it has a reminder that some dreams take time to come true.

I voluntarily received and reviewed a complimentary e/copy of this book which I received from the author/publisher. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.

This book made me cry. Tears of all the hopes and dreams I have for my own three children. This was the sweetest tribute to God and how He directs our paths and dreams. I can not wait to buy this book for my kids and read it over and over with them! This is a fantastic children’s book!

I ABSOLUTELY NEED THIS BOOK IN OUR KIDDOS LIBRARY! It was the sweetest book with a fantastic message & filled with the most beautiful art on each picture. Kathie Lee really has done a great job on this children's books & hope everyone can get a copy to add to their shelves.

Hello Little Dreamer is a wonderful inspirational children's book about finding and following the dream that God planted inside of you at a young age.

Simply a gem! I love the pics, love the message, adore the unconditional love. This is such a beautiful message. Love the diversity as well. Would make for a great supplement to a baby shower gift.

It was my privilege to receive a digital ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This book is beautiful and tells an important message for kids everywhere. Each of us were uniquely designed by God for a great purpose. To know how special He considered us can inspire us to dream big dreams.

I appreciated the length of the book which was a tad longer than many books for children. The verse is extremely engaging. To top off the wonderful story, the illustrations are fantastic - representing kids of every culture.

This would be an excellent gift for our kids and grandkids.

Hello, Little Dreamer is full of adorable illustrations and easy-to-read rhymes. Each page teaches children about God's great plans for them and reminds them that they have always been a part of His "dreams". My children loved this book and I'm sure we will end up reading it many more times.

Such a cute book and I'm really pleased with the length and illustrations. I'd like it better if there was more of a focus on glorifying God...that should inform all of our dreams, as Christians.

This children's book was so precious!

Not only is it gorgeously illustrated, but the story is so beautiful as well, teaching children from a young age about the dreams God places in our hearts.

I love that it teaches that sometimes we have to wait on the Lord and His timing for those dreams to come true, but also how other times they are brought to life quickly.

It's a gorgeous tale that would be delightful to read over and over again.

I highly recommend this book for the little children in your life!

This cute little story shares how God plants dreams in your heart before you are even born. It is a sweet reminder to children that God has a plan for your life, and He cares about you.

My Thoughts: The message in this story is one children need to hear. And, combined with the beautiful colors and adorable illustrations, it would make a wonderful bedtime read.

I would like to thank Thomas Nelson for providing me with a free digital copy of this book in exchange for my review. Thank you!

I thought this was a really cute and easy to read children book. The illustrations were beautiful and I think anyone could enjoy this book.

Hello, Little Dreamer by Kathie Lee Gifford is a sweet children's book with lovely illustrations. In Hello, Little Dreamer, Kathie Lee Gifford inspires the little reader to think about dreams and also to follow God's dreams for them. The book encourages the child to try new things as well as persist in doing things, to grow better and develop their skills. All the encouragements point the little reader to God, which I love. All in all, this is a sweet book for children with great illustrations. I would recommend this to all.

'Hello, little dreamer' is a cute little story written by Kathie Lee Gifford. I love the purpose behind this book- to encourage kids to try new things, to follow their dream, and to know that God supports their dreams. I easily imagined Kathie Lee"s voice as I read this story. I've watched Kathie Lee Gifford through the years and I know that this is a story that means a lot to her as both an author and a person. The illustrations were gorgeous. I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to share it with others.

I received an arc of this book, I am freely reviewing this book. I loved the way, Kathie Lee Gifford, shows children that God gave us all a purpose in life. This book encourages children to do new things, try the impossible, and above all, the love God has for us,ALWAYS. I really enjoyed this book, so did my grand children. I have bought this as a gift to them all, for Christmas!

What a sweet little book! The illustrations are beautiful and the message is so important. I love that KLG reminds the reader that God has know them from the very beginning. I cannot wait to share this book with the children in our bible study.

Thank you Kathi Lee Gifford, Thomas Nelson/ Harper Collins Christian Publishing and Netgalley for this ARC.

This book is so sweet.
First of all, I loooooove the illustrations! They are really quite beautiful. I also love that they have some diversity in the ethnicities of the children drawn. That makes it relatable to more children and families,
I also love how the story flows. It rhymes, which is great for little ones, and the words explain things in a way that is simple and interesting at the same time. The words are easy to see and read, but there is a word set apart through font and colors that makes the story flow nicely too.
I like how the author explains what a dream is and that God gave all of us different dreams. How we have dreams that are easy to reach and dreams that take longer to reach. How it compares dreams from God like paintings-they take time to accomplish. The story does a good job of explaining how dreams can be different in the pictures too!
This book is so sweet, and if you’re a religious person, or believe in God, this is a lovely book to read with your children!

This book features stunning illustrations and a beautiful theme. It can be read to the youngest children while also resonating with adults. In these difficult times, I believe that nurturing children and their dreams is more important than ever. As a side note, especially if you are considering it as a gift, God is present throughout in a nondenominational way. Highly recommended!

**I was provided a free copy of this book by the publisher (via NetGalley) in exchange for a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own (and my kid's!).**
This book is *adorable*. My kids (5yo & 3yo) were captivated by the illustrations and the message. This book gave us a chance to talk about dreams and how God encourages us to dream. I love how this book talks about God planting dreams inside us because He wants wonderful things for us. It talks about how He wants all the wonderful dreams inside us to come true! While this lays a wonderful foundation for kids to start thinking about their dreams and futures, it's worth noting that our dreams don't always match God's (the book mentions that too). I have a lot of respect for Kathie Lee Gifford and her courage in being outspoken about her faith. This book only adds to my admiration for her as a mother and as a godly woman. I'm grateful for this book, it's biblical encouragement for little ones, and the beauty it adds to our lives. I look forward to reading it many more times as they grow!

What a delightful book especially in this crazy time. Kathie has a way with lyrical tone and the basis is so true! Never give up on your dreams no matter how small or how big. Anita does a wonderful job of the illustrations being diverse and so precious. I highly recommend this book to any young child to help them find their dreams and to begin living them.

I received an electronic ARC from Thomas Nelson: Children through NetGalley.
Gorgeous illustrations support this tender story of God's love and plan for each child. Gifford encourages young readers to be brave and bold and follow their dreams. They will feel God's presence with them as they grow and explore.
Touching story for preschool and younger elementary readers though the message applies at all ages.

Thanks Thomas Nelson and Netgalley for the Arc in exchange for an honest review.
The illustrations in this book are adorable - I can picture children gravitating towards this book at night. While I’m not overly religious being non practising Christians this isn’t preachy, I found this message extremely beautiful and written for younger children. I can’t wait to read to my nephews at bedtime when they come to stay.

The illustrations in this book were SO CUTE - I could picture children gravitating towards this book at night. While I’m not overly religious, I found this message extremely beautiful and well written for children.

I loved the pictures in the book, the kids are so cute. This is a cute Christian story for kids, not overly preachy. Its a great book by Kathie Lee Gifford.

I loved the illustrations in this book they were really lovely!

The story is easy to follow and whilst I am not religious it did not put me off reading it.

It was well written and had a really lovely flow to the story too

It is 4 stars from me for this one, it was a lovely little book to read and one I can see being treasured.

I love this cutesy style of illustration. It's one of my favorites. Plus the message of this book that God puts desires in our hearts and helps us grow to achieve them. It's what makes us unique and how God molds us into the people He wants us to be.

This book tells children that God has a dream for them before they were born. Sometimes it happens right away, sometimes it takes longer, but that’s okay. It has a beautiful message for children. The illustrations are wonderful. I think the book is great for ages 4-8. When my grandchildren are old enough to understand, I will read this book to them. Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas Nelson: Children’s for the E-ARC. This is my own opinion.
