I Believe in You encourages kids to look within to find they have all they need to succeed?and to know they always have someone cheering them on. Make this your most inspiring bedtime story to say goodnight and "I love you" every night with this beloved book. From Booklist Yes, this is yet another picture-book confirmation of a child’s self-worth, but it’s not without its own rough-around-the-edges charm. A parent’s voice supplies the rhyming, first-person voice: “You came into our family / with a big, BIG job to do, / the one of growing up into / the one and only you!” From birth to monsters to playing baseball, whether roller-coaster days are easy or tough, there is always reassurance from the unseen narrator. Keywords and key phrases are printed in different colors to drive home the self-esteem messages, adding to the colorful hodgepodge design. The breezy, bright watercolors, meanwhile, are spontaneous looking and childlike, with a minimum of brushstrokes used to suggest the backdrops behind the smiley-face characters. Though message driven and purposeful, this declaration of unconditional love might just provide a caregiver with the right words to express his or her confidence in a child who is not feeling up to the latest task.
