Review: The Most Amazing Thing

Come along with Henry as he discovers the most amazing thing of all!
 
Henry is stuck in the house with nothing to do. His mother suggests he draw something, something amazing. One by one he asks members of his family what the most amazing thing is. 
 
'Life,' says his sister.
'The mind.' says his brother.
'The universe,' says his father.
 
These are all amazing, but are they the MOST amazing thing?
 
Philosopher and primary school teacher Ian Hayward Robinson adds this enchanting children's picture book to his already impressive string of achievements. 
The Most Amazing Thing is delightfully illustrated with colourful full page mixed-media spreads throughout. Illustrations filled with wonder and humour that will spark the imagination of young readers as they follow the story to find that they are unique and one of a kind which truly is The MOST Amazing Thing.
 
Recommended age: 4 - 7 years
My rating 5 / 5  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
