I am a Meghan Stan by this threads standards but I did tell my husband upon first reading that it was not well written. However, it is cute and does improve on further readings (maybe it’s folksy, maybe you get used to it?). And to be fair it’s not worse than a lot of other kids books. Think of “I’ll love you forever” or “I’m gonna like me”
I will say that my kids seem to like it and have requested it both bedtimes since we got it. My 5 yo just started reading son loves to read the book out loud to his dad and baby brother every night. It’s been very sweet. So there’s that at least.
I enjoy the writing style. English major so I get where she was going with it...
