Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
All You Can Imagine
Marçolla, Bernardo · 2021
68/100
👎 Skip It
Bernardo Marçolla brings an unusual combination of literary and psychology credentials to a picture book about wonder and connection, and the lyrical text seems genuinely crafted for rereading aloud. The abstract concepts are ambitious for the age range and will need a parent to anchor them, and the critical record is thin. A thoughtful, gentle book — just one that works best as a companion read rather than a standalone purchase.
