Cute illustrations, but I don’t understand why some animals are seeking shelter from predators and then they are welcoming predators inside the house they built.

“Everybody’s Welcome” is a sweet story featuring woodland creatures. Very cute.

A sweet picture book about tolerance and inclusion. Everyone is welcome, no matter who they are or where they come from. Rhyming and repetitive text.

love the message and the art is gorgeous but I really disliked the way the text was set-up there were pages where it was hard to read and it was so small. I also really dislike books with a cascade of slightly smaller pages I think it's a confusing reading experience especially if it's going from big to small for some reason, unless there's some functional/artistic purpose to it like cut outs/windows and/or it's part of the storytelling like in an action sequence.

Has a lovely sentiment and message in the rhyming text will lovely illustrations, great connections to refugee or immigrant lessons. The FTC requires that I disclose that I received a free copy of the book from the publisher.

A sweet books that teaches acceptance of everyone, regardless of their shape or size, using animals who all work together utilising their various talents. Promotes the idea of 'What makes us special makes us strong' and living in harmony. There are some lovely flaps to move in this book as the child follows the mouse's tale.

Physically such a pretty book, with cute old-timey illustrations of all the different animals, and dutch doors and peek throughs and high quality paper....too bad the story sucks. It was what I expected, unfortunately, overly rhyming, overly sweet, overly repetitive...blah. What a waste.
