It’s the kind of book that makes you want to hug your younger self, maybe apologize for that questionable haircut, and definitely high-five your teenage self for surviving.
And the universal appeal? Oh boy, is it there! This isn't just a book for parents or educators. This is a book for anyone who has ever been a child, anyone who *is* a child (lucky them!), and anyone who has ever *known* a child.
