Tales That Spark Wonder in Young Readers

I love the rhyming and the message of this story. Sara is just like my daughter at that age, always asking why. The caring, thoughtful answers in the book feel very true to real family life, and I really appreciate them. (This review has been adapted for display on this website.)

An enjoyable book that is nicely written. The simple style works well for young readers and keeps the message easy to understand. (This review has been adapted for display on this website.)

I really appreciated seeing a Black girl as the main character and enjoyed most of the artwork throughout the book. One visual detail, the white chairs, felt a little unsettling to me as they reminded me of white sheets, which I did not enjoy. I also would have preferred a slightly more powerful ending to the story. Overall, the illustrations are colorful and engaging. (This review has been adapted for display on this website.)
