Miracles really do happen every day. Sometimes we all need some story, anecdote, or inspiration to be optimistic. If we are in a difficult period of life, it is not easy to stay positive, but we can never know when happiness is hiding around the corner.

Miracle Mello by Sahel Amani-Ghoreyshi is a children's book that follows the life of a small yellow-eyed kitty. One day, a little kitten was crossing the road with her mother, but because of the fear of the car's speed, she instantly ran away. She hid under a car and fell asleep, and her mother could not find her. Not long after, Ms. Safa found her and brought her into her family. The whole family immediately treasured her and named her Yellow Mello because of her brilliant yellow eyes. One day, after the family moved to a new house, Mello got lost again because she couldn't find her way back home after her walk. The reader further learns what happened next and whether the family managed to find Mello.

This book is a short motivational story about the importance of hope and optimism. I appreciate how this story, inspired by an actual event, has been translated into a children's picture book. The story stresses the importance of positivity regardless of life's obstacles. The characters in the story, particularly Ms. Safa, can inspire all readers on how to behave in challenging situations. In addition, I must accentuate my delight in the illustrations. They are stunning and remind me of cartoons from the 90s when special attention was paid to details, colors, and atmosphere. I especially enjoy the depictions of nature and the night sky. This picture book, with its pastel palette of colors, has a calming effect and would be ideal for reading to children at night as a bedtime story.

I have nothing negative to say about this book. I enjoyed it from beginning to end, and I think many other readers will like it as well. In addition, I did not encounter any grammatical or typographical errors, and the book seems exceptionally well edited.

Considering that I have no reason to give this book a lower rating than perfect, I give it 5 out of 5 stars. I enjoyed every segment of the book, and I believe the ideal readers of this book would be animal lovers and all who believe that hope and positivity are vital in life.

Finding the appropriate books can be tricky sometimes. This book will teach children the values needed in adult life. Lovely review.
