Critics Review
“Ashman and Chou look at some simple ways to say, ‘Hello, friend. / I’m glad you’re here, ’ with acts of kindness and friendly gestures … Simple, stylized artwork in bright shades keep the focus on the interactions, and readers will delight in finding the blue butterfly in every scene. A springboard for readers to consider their own ways to welcome.” –Kirkus Reviews
“Stories about inclusiveness, kindness, simple hospitality, and positive representations are all in high demand these days, and this attractive title fits the bill. Most libraries and preschools will find this a welcome -addition.” –School Library Journal
