This is originally a song, for the first time published as a picture book. It is happy and bright, full of life a light. The writing is simple but beautiful. When a young boy finds things wrong with the world, all he has to do is look at his little sister, and all is right with the world. What a beautiful sentiment. 

I love this simple, yet most beautiful book. I hope it will become a treasure in your home for years to come. I loved the bright illustrations and the happiness that runs through the whole story. Happy reading! The main characters are African American.
