I really loved this book and i think it's for everyone whether you're a child or old because even in old age we get materialistic and this book shows the importance of how giving your love and friendship is much better than giving things. It's giving a piece of yourself. I recommend this to everyone and i believe it should be used all times of the year.

The perfect gift for children with a perfect message. The best gifts can't be bought. :). Lovely to buy for children that still enjoy being read aloud to.
