A big thank you to the publisher for gifting me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review! I'm always so thankful to have these opportunities! 

Today we have a book that has a 5 triquetra rating of "I loved it." 

This book can be quite the education powerhouse! We've got the alphabet, animals that begin with each letter in the alphabet, sight words associated with the letter, as well as mindfulness and affirmations - AND affirmations that relate to nature too?? This is a complete win for me, and I think that parents, caregivers, libraries, schools, daycares etc should all have a copy. 

I can't wait to use it during my circle times and story times for the little ones I care for! 

The illustrations were beautiful, bright, colorful and pleasing to the eye. All the animals are adorable and littles will adore their cute faces.
