This beautiful little book makes your heart sing. It pulls together uplifting word gems and soft gentle visuals that perfectly illustrate the absolute innocence, wonder, awe, unconditonal love, and trust of real children, whose souls shine in their eyes. No cute cartoons here, just Truth. The heart of the artist Is the art, the genius gift that comes by Grace through her and reflects the perfect child within. This is a book for all ages. You don't want to stop looking into those beautiful little faces.

WHAT I BELIEVE is a beautiful book with an inspiring message for readers of all ages. The uplifting words and lovely illustrations come together perfectly. It is a great gift for any special young person in your life. Get a copy for yourself too. This one is a keeper.

"What I Believe" by Jennifer Murphy-Morrical, illustrated by Sue Shanahan, is an absolutely gorgeous book. The language of the story is charmingly to the point: "I believe life can give you the best you can imagine," and the proses are matched with bright, gorgeous illustrations of children in various games of play: dress-up, dancing, playing cars, riding a rocket to the moon. This lovely book should be on everyone's Christmas list.

You'll reach for this book time after time when you need a quiet moment for yourself or the perfect gift for someone. Shanahan's beautiful illustrations are the perfect complement to Murphy-Morrical's tender words. Shanahan is the master of depicting a world where diversity is the acceptable norm. I believe this book will be on my shelf and my gift giving list for a long time.

The inspirational text and beautiful illustrations of this book make it a wonderful reading experience to share with a child or loved one of any age. The timeless theme of loving one another for who we are and how each one of us is special is put forth in a simple yet elegant way by author, Jennifer Murphy-Morrical. And Sue Shanahan's illustrations match each sentiment beautifully. Her illustrations show the individuality and beauty in every child. This book is a treasure you'll want to share with all the special children in your life. And maybe a few adults as well!

A Wonderful Book with Beautiful Illustrations - The Author & Artist Work Together To Make A Beautiful Book To Treasure. I Would Recommend As A Gift To Give But Also To Have Yourself!

Can't remember much so but I want it off my review list. I don't think it standfs out much in my mind. I bought it in April along with a book called "I Love You More" which I loved but my Granddaughter found hard to grasp the concept of.

This is a beautiful book, both in its message and in its exquisite artwork. The drawings are incredible, completely realistic, yet imbued with fairy-tale magic. This book reminds me of a wedding day , a Christening day, or an Easter Sunday, when everything is a perfect promise and we are our best selves.

This book is a great gift for a new mother, a small child learning to read or for someone who likes to remind themselves of what they believe in. This book made me feel like a child again. The pictures and the written work is amazing. Its a top on my gift to give to my family and friends for the Holidays!!

I love this book,as does my sixteen month old grandchild! When given to new parents or grandparents this book allows them to share their beliefs with a new child in the family. The words and illustrations interact to create a book that is truly inspirational. But most of all, I believe this is a gift to the child in all of us. This will be my gift to all new parents and grandparents.
