I recieved this book as a gift from one of my mentors, and I could cry! It is short and sweet and there are many meaningful affirmations throughout. I’ll be browsing the art within for many years to come, and using it as a reminder that I deserve the world. ❤️

This little book was so wholesome, uplifting and like a warm hug.

It is filled with quotes associated with self-belief, courage, identity, grief, affirmation, change and being seen and there’s something to take away for every one that gives this a read.

These quotes are alongside beautiful illustrations, that just filled me with with a sense of happiness.

I would personally gift this book to young adults, who are facing a type of change, challenge or a new chapter in their life (ahead of a new school year, exams, uni, starting a new job, for example) - it’s the perfect book to have by their bedside to serve as a reminder of just how great they are and that they are not alone in anything that the may be feeling.

There were a few quotes that even brought a tear to my eye, so I guess I need to hear a few of these too.

💬 “Talk kindly to yourself. You have to be with yourself for the rest of you life. You might as well be best friends.”

💬 “The younger you dreamed of becoming who you are today. Every move forward make them proud. You lighten their world, so keep going”

💬 “Losing you changed my life. Just like loving you did.”

some of the affirmations were repetitive but i think that was intentional to emphasize the important ones. some hit home and made me stop and think and tear up. books like these always lift my mood and are my favorite to read on days when i need a pick me up. not to mention the graphics are sooooooo cute!

Fantastic!! I never wanted it to end. Wednesday’s book shares reminders of encouragement that everyone needs to hear — their bio is right; their art truly feels “like a warm hug.”

My mum gave me this book and it made me cry (in a good way). It's just such a genuinely tender and gentle book.
