Bought 2 books for my 2 grandchildren 3 and 5
Beautifully written and illustrated
In the increasingly insular and disconnected world they’re growing up in it’s a refreshing change and has prompted some in depth conversations
Very impressed, as I am with many of the conscious stories I’ve bought, particularly the ones dealing with fear and anxiety

Not like the first ones
I have to say I did like the two “hugs” books better but the verdict is still out how my granddaughters will like it!

A gift to the world
I could not possibly imagine tje mind of some giving less than glowing 5 stars. Not the least of which is naming and rendering just perfect names for difficult feelings like “sticky feelings” for children and parents. Deep connection with even pre-readers. They get it! Thank you, Andrew

Little brain people
Real words. Real feelings. Engaging narrative. My 3.5 month son pre-reading is reciting Andrews narratives every book word for word, and teaching his classmates breathing. Buy every book. All ages engage and learn and talk about. Narrative and illustrations entirely connected.. ordered 9 including Little Brain People, Will omelets set and order another for his school.

Circles are never ending.
I purchased the book: We are Circle People for my youngest two grandsons, ages 5 and 7, the youngest of 15 of my grands. Many years ago , my youngest daughter made me a clay model of 7 people in a circle and a candle holder in the middle , representing my 7 children and the light a family gives to each other and the Universe. The book is perfect to go with the clay family and to teach her children the importance of connection and belonging in the modern day village . Hillary Clinton once said " It takes a village to raise one child" . I had a 50 acre farm and a 14 room home that was full of many children who came through my 7 children and had love, food and acceptance. God Bless.
... while fostering deeper connection with your children.
