-- When I Grow Up What Will I Be? Is something many kids think about.--
Michali Mazor, the 15-year-old author of "When I Grow Up", shares her own musings of childhood as she describes in adorable rhymes and lovely illustrations the many professions (and adventures) she contemplated. “What I Want to Be When I Grow Up” inspires kids to embrace possibilities and anticipate the future with a positive ‘Yes I Can’ attitude. But while Michali encourages kids to dream about the future and think of the many options available to them she also reminds them to celebrate who they are today.
It is important to encourage children to dream and have ambitions. As well, it is wonderful to inspire children's imagination. But never should kids (or their parents) forget to enjoy and appreciate what and who they are right now!
"When I Grow Up" has the most exquisite illustrations and the story is written in a catchy poetic way. There is so much life and heart put into this sweet little story. I am sure children will find this not only an eye-opening picture book but memorizing as well. I love the educational aspect that went into this heartwarming tale. This is an inspirational story that in its simplicity has great depth with its inspiring message. I would highly recommend this clever story written by 15-year-old, Michali Mazor. I am beyond impressed!
