Kirkus Reviews
“An upbeat, uncomplicated ode to bodies that are big, thick, broad, and boundless.”—Kirkus Reviews
Publishers Weekly
“Body positivity shines through a jaunty rhyming text . . . . Individual examples are then followed by the hearty refrain ‘When I look in the mirror/ what do I see?// Big and bold and beautiful me!’ Burgett’s images effectively use mirrors to depict the kids’ attitude shifts as they share their stories—from initial peering to celebrating their own reflection. As the expressive children, one by one, gather to play at a nearby park, readers may well be feeling the cheerful undercurrent of affirmation and support. Ages 4–8.”—Publishers Weekly
