Amazing children’s book!!
Got the cutest children’s book in the mail over the holiday break⬇️𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙽𝚒𝚔𝚔𝚒: 𝙷𝚎𝚛 𝙹𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚗𝚎𝚢 𝚝𝚘 𝚂𝚎𝚕𝚏-𝙻𝚘𝚟𝚎 is an adorable story about a young girl growing up self-conscious, doubting herself and everything that makes her, her. As she gets older she learns that there is only 1 Little Nikki in the world and discovers her own self-love.I thought this book was great and love the idea of teaching kids from a young age to embrace themselves, flaws and all! The art was beautiful and went so great with the story telling. I definitely recommend this children’s read and will continue to embrace and teach the message this story conveys🥰

    This is such a good book to read to the little girls in your life! It teaches them about loving who you are and that it's okay to be different. Something that's very hard to find nowadays. Girls are shown at a young age that you have to look a certain way. This story teaches girls that's not true and speaks beautifully about finding self love and worth, which is much needed in today's society! Very well done!

    When I first saw this book, I HAD to get it for my 3yo daughter! This precious story shows Little Nikki's journey to loving herself again after school friends leave her with doubts about her self-worth. My daughter was totally engaged in the story, loved the message, the illustrations and the main character - who looks like her and comes from a small island too! It has since had her, and her brother, chanting "I love myself"! This is definitely a book that needs to be in every child's library for those times that they need a little reminder to love themselves.

    This book is about one of "the talks" children need to receive to live wholesome lives. I titled this sometimes family isn't sufficient because even though her family was loving and supportive the main character still went their feelings. The topic of changes is presented in a tactful and entertaining manner. The lovely illustrations help convey the feelings and messages of the author, Nicole Marshall.

    Based on the name of the character, subject matter and writing style it's not hard to believe this might be autobiographical. If this is so, it might explain why the author was able to capture the emotions on such a deep level while keeping it simple to understand. It bought to mind my own rapid development in 5th grade and that of a Caucasian girl.

    This book is a great preparation tool for live changes and a comfort for children who maybe experiencing similar feelings and events. I hope the writer produces more fun stories like this.

    This is a well-written and beautifully illustrated book that teaches children to love themselves, and shows them a way to build confidence in themselves. Nikki is excited to go to school and make friends. And soon she is able to make friends to play with. But, over time, Nikki changes - she’s taller and more mature looking than her friends and they start to make fun of her. This makes Nikki sad. Then, she figures out a way to change how she feels about herself and gain her confidence and self-esteem back.

    Little Nikki is a lovely story about how a positive attitude can overcome problems. I'm a school teacher and I have noticed some of my students experience similar situations. This book could help them feel more optimistic. I'm sure many people can relate to the story. This book encourages young people who are going through bad times that things will get better.
    The illustrations are beautiful and fitting for the story.
    I highly recommend this book for parents whose children might be struggling with a problem at school.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 27, 2023
    This is a lovely little picture book encouraging children to love themselves. Little Nikki is a bright joyful little girl, but when she gets to school she finds out that everyone is very different. She grows faster than the other girls and boys and they begin to mock her. Making fun of her looks. But with help from a book the teacher gave her slowly, she begins to change and love the skin she is in. Worth checking out.
