Dust Covers - I hate them!
I hate dust covers. With today's technology, wrapped books Vs dust covers is a choice. The publisher's are bring cheap with their dust covers. Every time. Stop it! STAR RATING DOES NOT REFLECT QUALITY OF BOOK CONTENT, rather presentation.

I got this book for my daughter, and it’s quickly become a favourite. The message about not being afraid to fail and always trying is something I love sharing with her. The illustrations are beautiful, and the story is simple yet so meaningful. It’s a great reminder for both kids and adults that the journey is as important as the destination. My daughter finds it inspiring, and it’s sparked some lovely conversations about not giving up, no matter how hard something seems.
