    My 5 year old has read this every day since she got it for Christmas. She is obsessed with the ‘new words’, especially ‘rikiki’ because her sisters name is Kiki plus it means teeny weeny which she is. A very lovely book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Charming and colorful
    Reviewed in the United States on 3 October 2023
    This book tells a charming story. A little girl asks all sorts of creatures if she is small? She learns that she is small to some, huge to others. It's all a matter of perspective. And that means she is perfect, just as she is. Not too small, not too big -- just right. I loved this sweet story and the illustration was so cheerful and bright. Delightful as a bilingual read but it's a great book even if you're not looking to practice French.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet. Interesting words and perspective. Very vibrant pictures.
    Reviewed in Australia on 11 September 2020
    Most importantly students aged 5-8 enjoyed the illustrations and words. The perspective of the questions makes children think and work out why the character is asking the questions.
