Not for me. Too long. And it reads like a story written by a middle school student instead of a book for middle school students. I think this would be better as a “told” tell then as a book.

A beautifully hand-colored tale to teach children that just because of our family circumstances, we are still loved. We never lose our colors (emotions). Perfect for foster parent, DHS representative, counselors, and teachers.

Tippy lived with a mean moffle that treated her badly. She got taken away to live with a nice moffle who loved her and took care of her. I liked the idea of the story but it just didn’t flow. Maybe if I was reading the actual book instead of on a Kindle it would of made more sense but I finished the book feeling confused. It needed more. The title was about the mirror but I felt that the mirror was a small part of the book. I felt that the book should of been titled, Tippy Moffle’s Feelings because that was more what the book was about for me. My 5 year old son thought the book was ok.

I'm not sure if I like this book. I didn't enjoy the illustrations as much as I like to, and the book's overall design is not to my taste. I truly believe this effects the reading experience.

The topic is not an easy one, and I don't think it is executed well enough. It may not be easy to understand for younger children and may feel a little weird for older children.

Tippy Moffle's Mirror is a beautifully written and illustrated book which tells of Tippy Moffle whose Tummy Mummy is unable to look after her so she goes to live with New Mummy Moffle and all the emotions Tippy feels towards her Tummy Mummy and then her adoption. It is written in a way that young children will understand and as a Mum to a 4 year adopted son I can understand New Mummy Moffles feeling too. The phrases used such as Tummy Mummy are the same phrases I use with my son and he loved hearing about Tippy as, even though he is a little young to understand everything in both his and Tippy's situations, he could relate to the fact that he and Tippy are similar.
It is a lovely story for all children but especially adopted children who can relate to the feelings.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy.

This is a beautiful story, despite being really really sad.
It talks about a little moffle that is taken away from her mummy, and placed with a new mummy moffle, and how she then comes out of her shell and becomes more like herself.
This is all explained simply through colours which is very efficient and very effective.
Great read :)

I absolutely loved this book and think it could be relatable to so many kids. It very tastefully touches upon depression and foster homes. I think that it could be used for social emotional learning as well as for inference because there is a lot not directly said in the story. I will be buying this book for sure!

This is a lovely story helping children understand about different feelings and also introducing children to adoption or fostering. The illustrations are great
