Review: The Gift Of The LadyBug

Wow! The Gift Of The LadyBug is a book that will warm your heart and bring happy tears to your eyes! To those who have lost a child and to those who have not, you can't help but be brought to tears by the merriment captured in Carole M. Amber's awe inspiring children's book! While going through one of the darkest moments of her life, The Gift Of The LadyBug was born. And not only was it born but this unselfish beautiful woman is sharing her personal story and her uplifting message that if her little boy T.J. could face his fate with joy, laughter, love and peace, her and the rest of the world could do the same. 

This endearing children's book teaches children and adults alike about acceptance and embracing differences. 


Illustrator Evi Shelvia knocked this one out of the park. Every single picture floats right off the page. You can feel every letter, vowel and word they talk about from the illustrations. They are super duper fun, cute and adorable. Your little children are going to love having this book read and shown to them.
