The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer

Jimmy Carter Β· 2014
70/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

There is something genuinely touching about a president writing a bedtime story for his daughter that became a published fable about courage, compassion, and disability inclusion β€” and the heart of the story holds up even if the prose occasionally shows its improvised origins. Jeremy's willingness to face the creature alone, and what that encounter becomes, is a fable worth sharing. Amy Carter's illustrations add a homemade warmth that suits the book's character. A modest but meaningful find, especially for families with children who have disabilities.
