This delightful children’s book teaches children that they are unique and special in their own way. They learn that they don’t need to be perfect to love who they are and be loved. They just need to appreciate their own wonderful qualities and abilities. The colouring and writing activities are a wonderful addition that enables them to internalise these important concepts.

Early self-love, self-acceptance, and confidence instillation are crucial for children to develop an all-round personality, especially in today’s competitive world.

My own journey towards self-esteem has convinced me that it is the foundation for a healthy, happy, and successful life. Good self-esteem, which means knowing that one is innately okay, is what will determine the quality of your relationship with yourself, others and life itself. Therefore, Rupali Khattar Mehra’s book on fostering self-esteem among children meets my unconditional endorsement. If this little book can help children embrace themselves a little better than they presently do, she will have done her bit in making the world a better place.

An inspiring book with many great lessons for children!
— Bhavya Doshi, author and founder of The Doodle Desk

The foundation for a “happy life” has its roots in childhood. Helping a child feel secure, confident and perfect, just the way they are, is the best gift a parent can give his/her offspring. It is the compass that will guide them through their life, in all seasons, be they stormy or peaceful. I feel so happy to see a book that offers this understanding, in a light playful manner. Sit close, read it together with your children, and I am sure the lessons will hold them in good stead even when you are far from them! Congratulations, Rupali Khattar Mehra, for highlighting a much-needed subject.
