Why Not?

I 100% love this book and love this author. The story is beautiful and so are the pictures. The message in the book is a great one for any age. I love reading this to my two year old!

It's a wonderful magical book. Illustration's are beautiful!

i am a woman in my 30s and i bought this for MYSELF because i fell absolutely in love with yamada's other book "Maybe". the simple, beautiful story mixed with the GORGEOUS illustrations by barouch makes these 2 books the most BEAUTIFUL books that i own.i wish that yamada used barouch for all of his books as i do not like the illustrations of his other books by different illustrators.i cannot recommend these two books enough. they are just stellar.the first book i received was damaged in transit but i contacted amazon and they promptly sent me out a replacement in that arrived in perfect condition. i am SO SO SO happy to own these breath-taking, stunningly beautiful and comforting/inspiring books.Do not let the cover fool you! This book is NOT just for children. This is something that can and will certainly be enjoyed by people of all ages. I am desperately hoping for more yamada/barouch works in the future.A++++++

BEAUTIFUL book! So meaningful and gorgeous, whimsical illustrations!! I feel inspired and encouraged myself every time I read it to my littles❤️

Kobe Yamada has become one of my favourite authors to use for my Grade 5 class. Each book makes children think a bit more deeply, and they encourage children to explore who they are, take risks and dream big.

I’m a high school teacher and I read a lot of Kobi’s books to my students. All of his books have meaningful and important messages for ALL ages. I also love the illustrations of this one. I often read children’s books if I need a reminder or just a pick me up and I’m happily adding this to the rotation :)I think as adults we are always on the go so it’s nice to sit down, read a children’s book, and be reminded about the important things in life.I used to teach preschool and I would always read Kobi’s books to them. Again, his books are good for ALL ages!

Kobi Yamada's book, "Why Not? Discovering Your Bright Possibilities" is an excellent book for children and people of all ages. This well-written and beautifully illustrated book encourages the reader to explore the dreams you have for your life and not let anyone tell you 'No.' Instead, ask the question, "Why not do it?" and let your imagination dream your dream for life. I used this book for a graduation message in my church and then gave copies to the seniors to drive home the point.

A great book for my 3 year old nephew who has begun to question things. Nurture curiosity!

This is a lovely, uplifting book that encourages kids to stay curious, trust their ideas, and ask “why not?” The story feels gentle and affirming without being preachy, and the illustrations are soft and engaging. It’s especially nice for kids who are thoughtful, imaginative, or a bit cautious—it validates curiosity and creativity in a really positive way. A great choice for sparking conversation about trying new things and believing in yourself.

Arrived earlier than expected, very well packed. Amazing book with beautiful text and pictures. I'm very excited to have this book in my library. Thank you.

Absolutely beautiful book

The illustrations alone make this book worth buying.

Such a sweet book. We bought it to use as a keepsake for teachers to sign throughout my son’s school years. He just finished kindergarten and I loved the sentiment and that it isn’t too little kiddish.
