A story about a creative, caring, and strong young girl who has the most caring heart and see’s the world in ways we can all learn from! Shay knows just how special single parents are, and is excited to introduce you to the strong females in her family! When Shay turned 5, her Mum and Grandma got to work on making her party extra special! Shay is exuberant to invite her friend’s from school and just met a new friend Nala. Through Shay’s heart we see her embrace the world’s differences with love. When her Grandma makes her a cape and a crown, she feels the magic and power of the long line of strong women that surround her.
When I was invited to take part in this book tour after a long break from book blogging, I couldn’t resist! This was the perfect quick read to enjoy with my own five-year-old daughter, who’s being raised by some very strong, independent women!
The artwork in this book was absolutely charming! It’s vibrant without being overwhelming. What I really loved was how Grandma was portrayed as strong and independent—the kind of role model I hope my own daughter sees in me. Shay, the main character, was so full of energy, and her world was filled with wonderful women. It’s the kind of book that feels perfect for International Women’s Day, Mother’s Day, or any birthday celebration. What really stood out to me was how the book captured the different types of parental relationships in a way that felt accessible and relatable for young readers!
