So moving and beautiful
"This is a beautiful and moving book about self-love and the way the words we use stick to people. In addition to the powerful message, the art is stunning and the way the physical book itself is used as part of the story is super cool. A magical book!"
So gorgeous and powerful
"This book moves everyone to tears when I just describing it, before I even hand them a copy. My go to gift to everyone right now, not just for kids. Such a great read for parents and kids alike. 1000000/10."
BIG is a total must-read!
"With heart-pulling and boundary-pushing scenes in ethereal hues, BIG deftly uses demonstrative dialogue, concise and purposeful text, and powerful, deeply personal words to convey crucial perspectives: the drastic impact of name-calling, harmful size stigmas that have no place in society, standing up against people who wield hurtful words, embracing your wonderful self, and the healing power of positive words. A true masterpiece."
