Blueberry Girl
Reviews

I had much higher expectations. I wanted to give this as a gift to an 8-year old, but since the book doesn't really have much of a plot, I doubt she'll know what to do with it. Probably not gonna give it to her.

This is a wonderfully inspiring little poem. Blueberry Girl was one Gaiman initially wrote as a poem for his friend Tori Amos when she was pregnant with her daughter. The poem is beautifully written and now is illustrated with Charles Vess' wonderful art. I adore this little book. Give this to your daughter, your niece, your goddaughter, your mother!

Words can be worrisome, people complex, motives and manners unclear, Grant her the wisdom to choose her path right, free from unkindness and fear.

Dejé una reseña en español en mi blog: http://natified.com/2015/04/14/2015-e... I'm trying to complete my Neil Gaiman collection so I bought this book, written by Neil and illustrated by Charles Vess. It's a very short book, basically a poem Neil wrote for Tori Amos when she was expecting her daughter Tash. I'd read the poem before but I didn't have the book, now I do. The poem is wishes for this girl that will soon be born. Wishes for her life, for her mind, for her soul. It's very sweet and a pretty book.

Very cute, and a good positive message. Kind of wish there were some Asian girls represented since it seemed like it had a good representation of many type of people otherwise.
