These children love and accept their unique bodies, enjoy movement, know they are perfect, accept difficult situations, work through emotions and know that love is there whenever and wherever they need it. Your little one will love spending time with them!
"In our great big world, some things are always true.
I am perfect just the way I am, and you are perfect too!"
Review by Love Reading 4 Kids:
'"Perfect: A Self-Love Adventure', created by Suzanne Wylde is a book all about encouraging self-love. Written in rhyme, with a diverse cast of characters in the illustrations, this book contains the highly positive message that every child is perfect the way they are and whatever they may be feeling at the time: they are enough.
I liked that throughout the book there's also an interactive element noted by a 'Try it with me' star and helps to integrate breathing exercises and positive affirmations into the story. The Illustrations are clear and vibrant helping to depict times of difficulty and unhappiness as well as joy and positivity. I think the inclusion of these different situations in the illustrations can lead to further discussions about differences and being kind to others and yourself.
'Perfect: A Self-Love Adventure' is a sweet picture book with a worthwhile and positive message for young readers."
Early Review:
" 'Perfect' is a great book that offers a safe space for ourselves and our daughter to start having these important and sensitive conversations about diversity, self-acceptance and emotional regulation. It deserves a space on every child's bookcase and I know that we will be revisiting this book with our daughter time and time again."
