Tales That Spark Wonder in Young Readers

My daughter was immediately drawn in by the bright, colorful illustrations and could easily relate to the situations in the story. It is a clever and light-hearted way for kids to learn important ideas about everyday life. (This review has been adapted for display on this website.)

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.)

I really enjoyed this book, and the illustrations are absolutely delightful. I read it aloud to my five-year-old neighbor, and she immediately started coming up with her own questions. I can easily imagine preschool and early elementary teachers using it with their classes and even creating their own Why can’t I books together. There is so much here to enjoy and to think about.
