Kiki's Delivery Service

This was a really cute short book. I can see it being a good read for kids that like light hearted witchy stories. I enjoyed the vibes as a whole. It was a nice palette cleanser so to speak.

I have always loved the film Kiki's Delivery Service and I finally took the time to read the book (and I enjoyed it so much I read it all in one sitting)! It is a children's book but is so comforting and magical that even as an adult I still found it delightful. 

I have a little tattoo of Kiki and Jiji on my arm, to symbolise my own journey of moving away from home and finding myself in a new city. The book captures so many lovely feelings and thoughts; the joy of finding yourself and trying new things, meeting new people and longing for new experiences. It also touches on the worries and fears we all have as well, the concerns if people will like us, how we are perceived by others and what we are doing each day and if it is meaningful enough for us and I think this was handled so perfectly. 

I recommend anyone read this book, it was like a warm hug. I laughed, smiled and loved each moment.

This book delivers on the charm and magic. Just as wonderful as the famous film (based off the book), this is a story about the perils and joys of growing up, the wonder of the world, and the beauty of returning home.

This was such a cute simple feel-good book that just brought a smile to my face and the art was so cute!

This book was so cozy and warm, I enjoyed it so much. The details and imagery were so colorful and the characters gave it a whimsical feel. I love coming of age stories and reading about characters finding their way in the world, and this book came through on both points. This book is definitely a comfort read. I’m so happy I picked it up 💛

as much as i love the movie, i’d never read the book before, which made me all the more excited to get my hands on a copy! this was such a heartwarming book. just magic and vibes.

Although I read the whole thing in one sitting, I could see this being the perfect book for a week or two of bedtime stories, as each chapter is a self-contained episode in Kiki's coming-of-age story.

Cute, escapist fun.

This book was suuuuuper cute. The movie definitely deviated away from the book but the book didn't really have a conflict the same way the film did. It goes a little more in-depth about the world building and I cried at the end :') Then I watched the movie. Definitely had fun reading this and would recommend to anyone who loves the movie.
