You Belong to Me - Illustrated Children's Book (REVIEW)

You Belong to Me

Author: Mamoru Suzuki
Category: Illustrated Children's Book

Suitable for: All ages, ideal for 3-5

My Rating: 5 Stars

Format Read for Review: E-book from author/publisher.

Pages: 32

Description: This book is about love. It depicts many different animals showing love, affection, comfort and protection to a human child. The basic messages the child will take away from this book are: like the title, "you belong to me" and also "I love you," a message shared by all the animals throughout the book.

In Short: I love this book, it is super sweet. The theme is unconditional love. I think this book is a must have for a child of any age who has been adopted and maybe feels abandoned by their birth parents or has any fear of their adoptive parents not fully loving them. Because of how this book stresses these ideas: "I love you" and "you belong to me." This book is also great for younger children (in my opinion ages as young as 2 and old as 6) as a soothing bedtime story.

Pros: I love the art. It is incredibly cute with soft and sweet colors. The book certainly has a soothing feel to it. I think the author achieved their goal of making it a comforting bedtime story. Both parent and child will enjoy the lovely artwork. The words are all simple and easy for very young children to understand. The pages all have positive messages that are perfect for bedtime and sweet dreams. 

Cons: I have no issues with this book.

This book will be released Aug. 1, 2016. Find it on Amazon by clicking here.

I received a free copy of this book in return for my honest review.
