"Well, that was too cute! The Boy and the Egg is a short, adorable read with precious whimsical illustrations! I will be honest and say that I chose this book based on the illustration style alone. But the story ended up being just as whimsical and sweet. With bright colors, an engaging storyline, and child-like curiosity, this story will engage even the squirmiest of little ones! I highly recommend this, and will likely grab a hardcopy as soon as it's available!" - Sarah Grace Grzybowski

"As the title suggests, the boy and the Egg' is a simple but a cute tale about an inquisitive little boy who comes across an egg. The unattended egg sparks the boy's curiosity and he finds himself questioning about the existence of it. After carefully inspecting it, the boy decides to keep it with himself citing safety issues. His thoughts resonate about the possibilities of a living creature hatching from it. Since he has no idea about the origin of the egg, his imaginations run wild as he keeps guessing and fantasizing about it. The illustrations were vibrant and the boy's facial expressions were adorable. I'm very sure that the kids would find this book to be very appealing." - Siddharth D
