What Would You Do in a Book About You?

I absolutely love this book! It is so colorful and the message is perfect! The perfect read aloud for elementary students!

I probably enjoy this book more than my kiddo, he has hyper fixated on the 3 little pigs so things may change later on. I intend to use this book as an alternative to "oh the places you'll go" and on his last day before transferring schools (it's a Montessori school so he has 2 more years with his teachers before he gets new ones) have his teachers write something about/for/or to him. I didn't want them to have to rack their brains every year to write something different for my ds.

The gorgeous images and sweet rhyme scheme are just precious - we buy this book for every baby shower gift. As a new mom, this book made me tear up reading it. Now it’s one of my toddler’s favorites that he picks over and over. Thank you for a great story!

I love this book! I had the opportunity to read this as an advanced read via the author and #BookPosse. It’s a wonderful book to teach that we are capable of anything. My youngest daughter has memorized it we’ve read it so many times. I’ve ordered her a copy and a copy for my school library! Definitely worth it!

I sponsored a 2nd grade class and purchased this book for every student.Each student loved the book. It's easy to understand and the graphics are beautiful and colorful.

This book easily became a family favorite because who doesn't want to read a book about them? Beautiful illustrations too.

Just love the illustrations done by Joey Chou....and the story is awesome too

In her engaging rhyming text (perfect for a read-aloud), veteran author Jean Reidy issues a series of questions to young readers to invite them to consider all the things they might do "in a book about you" - that is to say, how might they star in the story of their own lives? The possibilities range from playful ("Would you sip tea with a frog?") to profound ("You might create something that changes a mind - or makes a heart stir. You might simply be kind"). Joey Chou's colorful, lively illustrations match the expansive options offered by the text to offer an irresistible challenge to dream the life you most want to live - and then go out and make those dreams come true. Grownups: this satisfying celebration of potentiality might just start you dreaming bigger, too.
