“Your book is absolute perfection. The children laughed, praised, smiled, clapped, oooo-ed, and awww-ed in joyous approval! These children are third grade students. You know it's 5-star quality when children can't get enough!
Thank you, thank you, Mrs. Chaffee! You should win all the children's book awards the world has to offer for creating such a fresh concept of a book!”

Ms. Kimbro wrote me a letter to say reading through the book with the class, they had conversations that they never even thought about having.
