Unstoppable Me is about the sort of energetic child we all know and love full of fun and play and a bit exhausting! In this book, we see an unstoppable little boy run, jump, and soar through his day. He takes a little time to refuel, then he's back at it zooming and zipping around. This poetic, joyful book filled with illustrations as bright and energetic as the boy himself is a celebration of the active child.

Industry Reviews

This Everykid plays, loves, and laughs, affirming not just unstoppability, but an unapologetic love of self. Joyner's vivid colors give the book and text a feeling of energy and highlight the diversity of the characters on the pages . . . a delightful read-aloud that kids will enjoy and parents will get a chuckle out of as they see themselves in the book. Bound to provoke many cries of 'Again!' --Kirkus Reviews

Joyner's exuberant illustrations capture the boy's perpetual motion and zest for life. There is a definite need for books of this ilk, focusing on the wonderful, wacky, and super-charged lives of kinesthetic learners . . . Parents and teachers of "kids who just can't sit still" like Verde's own (she provides an author's note at the end explaining her perspective) will likely find humor and camaraderie in the story. --School Library Journal

Joyner's energetic cartoon artwork conveys the spirit of Verde's words, showing the 'perpetual motion' of very young children . . . young readers will close this book feeling invigorated by the possibilities before them. --Publishers Weekly
