My 8 year old daughter strives for acceptance as many other children...she has no scars or other outstanding characteristics but lives in a world where grown women compete in The Swan, and beauty is more and more defined as being merely skin deep as evidenced by the increasing number of plastic surgeries performed. This book teaches, in oh, so gentle a manner, that we are all different and beauty comes from within. An engaging read, it teaches without preaching and cleverly lets children know that the first key to success is liking YOURSELF. It doesn't do a bad job at reminding adults of that fact, either.

This book really surprised me. It was the least expensive book that I ordered, and the most touching! I love this one page near the end that reads, "no person ever anywhere can make me feel that what they see is all there really is to me." I highly recommend this book! |

This book should be soaked up by parents everywhere. What a beautiful world this would be if all adults had the self-confidence of the little girl in I Like Myself! The illustrations are wonderful and the rhyme is divine. Treat yourself to a splendid book and give yourself a big hug and say, "I like myself!"

Children love books that rhyme, are whimsical and a bit silly. I Like Myself is all of that, plus it is a serious and heartfelt celebration of self-esteem.
The issue of self-esteem in children is a huge one and I Like Myself addresses that issue with enthusiasm. The young girl in the story is self-assured and declares, with conviction that, "I like myself because I'm ME!" What a celebration of self-love! All children would do well to read and reread this book, absorb the words of self-esteem and then believe the message.
The illustrations are whimsical, colorful and delightfully wacky. Children will be drawn to the pictures and enjoy reading the rhymes of self-acceptance. I suspect many will memorize the words.
Armchair Interviews says: Hopefully children will read this book over and over and really believe that they are truly special. We highly recommend I Like Myself!

An ode to self-acceptance told in simple rhyme. Story tells reader that what matters is deep inside. For example, "No matter if they stop and stare, no person ever anywhere can make me feel that what they see is all there really is to me." Catrow's illustrations are lively and loving.

As a mother of two who teaches, and received a bachelor's degree in literature, this is one of the first children's books I have come across that I can recommend without reservation. Even though the story is about a girl, my sons love it! It's wonderfully illustrated, and when we read it, we giggle at the pictures and the silly ideas. The best thing about this book is that through the silliness the words reinforce a message about self-esteem that cannot be repeated enough! They love it, I love it!
