Review

Thoughtful simple illustrations. Dark and tasteful colors make the book rather interesting. Lettering is large and clear. Mia is a little girl who sucks her thumb all the time and no matter what she will not stop neither for ice cream nor under threat that her teeth will be crooked. Until the day that grandma starts sucking her thumb all the time even on the city bus does Mia stop, I really liked this book from illustrations to theme to the family immersion.

Overall Book Score: very good
