Jack Canfield testimonial
"Poppy Goes to Dance Class is a heartwarming and inspiring story that captivates young readers with its engaging narrative and vibrant illustrations. Jenny O’Brien masterfully weaves a powerful message about perseverance, courage, and embracing new experiences, reminding children that they don’t have to be the best at everything they try—what matters is showing up and giving it their best."

"I loved reading this story with my kindergartener. Poppy is adorable! I’m a big fan of the last page which reads “what are some of your dreams?” with the space to write them down.

I got this on my kindle as well as a hard copy to keep on our bookshelf."

The Adventures of Penny and Poppy
"This is a beautiful book. The story and the illustrations are outstanding. I know children are going to love it. It also teaches them something. It’s great to try something new and to persevere and make a dream come true. But it’s OK if you choose to do something else after. We all have choices and you can try out many things."
