This is a review for the children’s book What Will My Story Be? The book is published by Nidhi Chanani. I was sent a copy of the book in exchange for this review.
Charlie and I enjoyed the storyline and learning more about what her story could be. Leading us to discuss what Charlie’s story might be when he grows up. Then we guessed what the aunt’s might be doing in 1 year, 5 years, 10 years and so on.
The illustrations drew us in while the colors calmed us. Charlie loved the Dragon and had fun drawing him in our Homeschool Art Class creating stories around him and the young girl and her aunt in the stories. WHAT WILL MY STORY BE? is a book Charlie and I would read again and again always finding something new?
ABOUT WHAT WILL MY STORY BE?
From the creator of the critically acclaimed graphic novel Pashmina, comes a new picture book that encourages kids to be their most creative selves and to imagine all the places that their stories can take them.
After spending an afternoon listening to her Aunties tell her stories from their pasts, a young girl ruminates on all of the tales that she can create using her imagination and begins to feel as if the possibilities for her future are endless. Filled with Nidhi Chanani signature vibrant illustrations, What Will My Story Be? is for anyone who finds inspiration in the quiet moments and cherishes the wisdom of the generations that came before them. Perfect for fans of Alma and How She Got Her Name by Juana Martinez-Neal, Drawn Together by Minh Le and Dan Santat, and You Matter by Christian Robinson.
