Review Quotes

"Bursting with empowering mantras, this ABC primer inspires reflection and positivity throughout the day. Featuring a diverse cast of children in the illustrations, each page highlights a letter in pink, cleverly hidden elsewhere in the vibrant illustrations for an engaging seek-and-find experience. Kids will enjoy spotting the letters, while caregivers will appreciate the uplifting messages, like "S is for smart. I can learn to do hard things!" VERDICT A perfect blend of fun and encouragement, this title is a first purchase for library collections."--Brooke Newberry, School Library Journal

"In a world that seems bound and determined to destroy self-confidence in its infancy, it's never too early to teach your child to love themselves. I LOVE ME FROM A to Z is a great way to start. Little readers will enjoy flipping through this sturdy, brightly colored board book, while their parents will 'flip' for its inclusive, encouraging message of self-acceptance and love."--Mindy Oja, @readingforsanity
