#MelAndNikkiReview
Now? Not Yet! is the perfect book that showcases overcoming differences. This book is also a shining example of how one can be impatient and this rings true in our home currently. Therefore, we could really relate well to it. When we can relate it means that we adore it a lot more.
We love the dialogue between Peanut and Moe as it was easy to follow especially for young children. The illustrations were also well done and it helped tell the story beautifully. At the end of the day, the most important is the message. Sometimes good things come to those who wait and it makes it extra special. This is a lesson that we are currently teaching as Nikki’s favorite words are: Now, When, and Are We There Yet? Slowly she is learning to be patient and to meet us somewhere in the middle so that we can all enjoy ourselves.
Therefore, for this #MelAndNikkiReview we give Now? Not Yet! 5 dives out of 5! A fun, full of heart and a great lesson to be learned is what can be expected with this book. It is recommended for children ages three to seven.
