None of children's books disappoint. They slap differently, especially because of the illustrations. I enjoyed your review.

Not judging people without getting to know them or, even worse, based on absurdities such as race, is a lesson that kids and adults alike need to learn. This seems like an adorable, innocent read for young ones.
Thank you for your enthusiastic review.

Children do have a beautiful quality of innocence that allows for a sense of curiosity and a lack of judgment of others. It sounds like this book highlights these aspects, as well as the importance of friendship and loyalty. I enjoy the unique character names as well! Thanks for the thoughtful review.

This sounds like an excellent book for children with a much-needed life lesson! I enjoy children's books but my grandchildren are all grown so I don't have anyone to buy them for! I love the cover on this book. I'm sure children will love this book and it might even help them overcome their fear of monsters!Thank you for the great review!

Even though I way more mature than the age group this book is intended for, I still believe that "A Story About Friendship, Kindness and Accepting Differences" is never amiss. Especially, the one beautifully illustrated and written, thereby I thank for gifting the book and whole heartedly congratulate on BOTD!

The reviewers' sentence structure caused a bit of confusion for me, but I did gather that their overall view of the book was positive and that the book was about not being judgemental based on gossip, or heresay. The goal of this book is to teach children to accept one another, and embrace different types of people, which is an important concept for kids to learn and talk about. The artwork is eye catching and engaging, and works well with the text, in creating an all-around interesting and fun book.

Sounds an interesting book for children from what you have told in your review. Nice comprehensive review! I think there are some lessons for children to learn like never judge others or how to face difficult situations.

This is a sweet story about three little monsters who get into mischief while playing football. The characters are fun and the narrative simple for children to read and enjoy. It also contains some important messages; a great book for caretakers and parents to discuss with children.

Childhood is the time to teach children core values such as acceptance, not judging people and being kind and considerate. And this book seems to be a great way to do that while keeping kids engaged with an interesting story. Definitely getting this book for my niece!

Teydon Rae gives a great message through this book about not judging someone before you get to know them. Unfortunately, I believe that kids are not judgemental, but it is the adults who push them to have misconceptions about others. I hope adults read this book along with kids so that they can work on improving themselves.
