Thank you to NetGalley and Whimspire Books for providing this book, with my honest review below.

I enlisted my trusty children book readers to help, ages 4 and 8, and they confirmed that my adult perspective was sound - Sincerely, Antonia is a hit with kids. Told from the perspective of an ant who has written a letter to a kid thanking him for his hospitality, the illustrations make this short and sweet read especially appealing, and the concept is hilarious. I had fun asking them to find the ants on the pages (easier for them with young eyes), and we all learned just a little bit about these invasive little creatures. Bonus for any adults looking to instil some lessons to kids - they now understand why we only eat at the table (though the 8 year old seems a little too enamored by the thought of wooing his own Antonia to the house…). If you’re not sure what will go over well with children, this is cute and well done, geared more to the much younger set.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc

This is a silly tale about ants who inhabit the home of a young boy and his parents. I think little kids will find this book to be very humorous and I can see it being a bedtime favorite. I especially enjoyed the illustrations in this book.
