Review:
While not what I expected going into this book, probably because I only looked at the cover and was like OOOh, it was adorable and a perfect gift book to share.
The book is made up of two-page spreads that have a lesson on one page that is accompanied by a sketch on the other that relates to the lesson. And while some of the lessons are along the lines of "You are magical, keep it up" others are fun magic themed lessons that can be guiding and translated into more real-world lessons of note. There are wizards, magical gems, creatures, monsters, and spells which make this book whimsical and fun.
It is a pretty short book and super easy to read. The sketches simplistic, black and white, that reference the lessons spelt out in cute ways. I really enjoyed flipping through and reading them.
If you have a daughter that likes fantasy and magic, this is a cute book, I would even venture to say that young boys could also be gifted this one if the title doesn't throw them off. I think it would also be a fun graduation gift as the synopsis mentions as well.
