I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, only an honest one.

A very awesome book cover, great colored pictures, & proper font & writing style. A very well written children’s (5-8) School Day Adventure story book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great children’s School Day Adventure movie, an animated cartoon, or better yet a mini TV series. There is no doubt in my mind this is a very easy rating of 5 stars.

Beautifully Illustrated children’s book

I received the ebook free for a honest review. The first thing I notice reading the ebook is the beautiful colors and representation of brown skin and natural hair. The story is cute and taught a lesson for young children. I would recommend this book for young readers.

Snow Flower and the School Day Adventure by Fleurie Leclercq is book 2 of Snow Flower Books. The illustrations are well done and will capture a young child's attention. The story uses a panther . easy to read but probably for an elementary school age child probably second or third grade age range to start. Younger children will like the pictures.
I received a copy thru a Goodreads Giveaway.

*I won this book as a Goodreads Giveaway

Ethnic and educational children's story with few grammatical errors. The illustrations are absolutely beautiful and follow the story well. Some of the words were harder to read due to background illustrations: larger font would have sufficed.

My granddaughter liked the colorful illustrations. Being a kindergartener, though, the content was a little difficult for her to comprehend. So, we’ll save it for later.
