Amazon Review

"A perfect book to share with children to teach them the importance of developing friendships. I love how each of CM Harris books build on each other in this series. And the follow-up questions are great for a group/ classroom setting."

NetGalley Review

"This was super adorable and a great way to talk about being kind! My 2.5 yo really liked it, and we spent a decent amount of time on the page about being kind to siblings haha. The illustrations were vibrant and interesting for the younger kids- the is most ideal for ages 2-4 I’d say! Very cute though and definitely worth adding to your shelf!"

Amazon Review

""What If We Were All Friends" is a sweet rhyming book about recognizing everyone's inherent value, regardless of our differences. Our unique backgrounds add value to the richness of life. This book underlines that concept and helps kids appreciate their friends."

NetGalley Review

"This is a great book for a child starting school. There are many different ways to be kind (sharing, not hitting, being patient, caring for animals). The diversity shown in this book cultural, religious, race, and physical ability) is so great too!"

Amazon Review

"This book is a perfect way to introduce diversity to small children. It is so well written and you can tell that the author is writing from experience. She shares her personal story at the back of the book. My favorite part of the book in what I have written in the headline. It really gives you a new way to think about how important it is to have "different" in our lives."
