THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL BOOK I CRIED! please please get this if you are considering, I bought it for my son who is in the NICU and it was such an emotional and inspiring read. His life has begun so hard with so many challenges but there is so much potential in him and this story is a reminder of the endless possibilities for his future beyond the hospital. Even the nurses cried while I read this to him. So beautifully written and illustrated!!!

beautiful illustrations, good message, wonderfully written

I am a former kinder teacher & this is just the kind of book I'd want to share with my students, as well as my own children when they were little & working through using their imagination through the art of play experiences. "Ones imagination." Yet, the person I'm giving this book to this Christmas is my teenage grand-daughter. Why? because first of all...this is a beautifully illustrated book and is encouraging a person of any age 'to look at where they are at the moment in life & where they are going'. What should be coherent for each of us thru our life span. This book invoked a peaceful feeling as I read it, with the illustrations doing a beautiful job of contributing to the written words.

Absolutely beautiful! My kids absolutely loves this book. We read it almost every night before bed. As an austim mom my kids love the polar bear page. They always say like my sister. Looking forward to buying more from thr author with the beautiful messages in the books.

This is the most beautifully written and illustrated children's book that I think I've ever seen. It's absolutely in our top 10 books on consent bed time story rotation, and never wears old. The imaginative whimsy portrayed in the images are perfectly matched throughout the entire storyline. I can't recommend this book and all others that we have read from this author enough!

I bought this book for a young lady who is graduating from high-school. The book is just so gorgeous. It made me cry. It sets the perfect tone for a young woman who's life in the big world is just beginning. At a time right now when this country is experiencing so much ugliness and uncertainty, especially for our young ones. I truly, highly recommend this beautifully written and illustrated book. The words truly gives us hope we so desperately need. It will make a splendid gift to any young person.

Absolutely beautiful! I bought this for a baby shower and I will be buying it for my granddaughter on her 2nd birthday! The words, the art is so wonderful!

Me encantan los dibujos y como se desarrolla la historia/mensaje; lo recomendaria a partir de 4-5 años.

Molto bello come pure gli altri libri di Kobi Yamada. Mi sono piaciute un sacco le illustrazioni e mia figlia si è commossa leggendolo. Lo consiglio vivamente.

“This is a story for everything you will do and everything you could be. It’s for who you are right now, and it’s for all the magical, unbounded potential you hold inside.” Maybe is one of the most beautiful books I have ever owned. The simple yet profound words of Kobi Yamada capture the essence of hope, the fear of uncertainty and the strength of resilience in us all, brimming throughout with positive affirmation that you can do, and be whatever you wish. With absolutely stunning painterly illustrations by Gabriella Barouch, Maybe is a wonderful gift for all ages and perfect for helping young readers to believe in themselves and what they can achieve.

I gifted this book to my son for his high school graduation present. The message is very inspiring and the illustrations are top notch!

C'est un album jeunesse que j'adore et dont j'aime particulièrement le message que je trouve essentiel de transmettre aux enfants dès leur plus jeune âge. Petit bémol sur l'état du livre qui est arrivé abîmé (couverture abîmée par le transport, dommage)
