cute board book message of love
YOU’RE EGGSTRAORDINARY is an adorable board book with a message of love and a spring theme. The book features a chick hatching from an egg and then on each page with a tuft of hair above the book and on their head on each image. The text speaks to the listener about how wonderful they are with a message of love from reader to listener.
What I loved: This is a simple but cute board book that will delight young readers. The text features a message of love and adoration from caregiver to listener that works well. The egg puns continue throughout the book for a cute touch of the theme. The hair tuft is perfectly placed with the images on each page, so it is clear that they are on top of the chick’s head. The illustrations themselves are colorful, bright, and sweet, suiting the theme well.
The font is oversized and easy to read throughout. The pages turn quickly and the book is brief, which will work well for the littlest readers. The ending is great with a clear statement of love from reader to listener.
What left me wanting more: The little hair tuft on the book sheds a lot all over the place. This is tough for little readers who will find it on their hands. It will need to be removed quickly for little ones so that it isn’t consumed. While the text and format work well for infants and young toddlers, this might be better for older children for that reason.
Final verdict: YOU’RE EGGSTRAORDINARY is a sweet and cute board book with a soft poof that young readers will enjoy.
