Praise for Maybe
“You need this book if you’re young or old, if you read it to your kids or if you read it to yourself. You need it if you’re lost, if you need reassurance, or if you just like to feel good.” (Karin Myers, The Children’s Book Library)
“This is the most empowering kids’ book I’ve seen. It’s about letting kids know THEY MATTER. It’s about purpose and potential, with a touch of magic and realness. It’s the book every girl or boy should hear.” (Michelle Poler, HelloFears)
“Yamada’s joy and appreciation for life combined with Barouch’s deep love of nature has created an inspiring and absolutely stunning book that will undoubtedly speak to people of all ages.”(Bianca Schulze, The Children’s Book Review)
“Dream, discover, love, speak your mind, and above all follow your heart, encouraged by this collection of reveries exploring a myriad of beautiful what-ifs and maybes.” (Pallas Gates McCorquodale, Foreword Reviews)
“Maybe is inspiration tucked inside an adventure, perfect for readers of any age who may be asking, ‘What next?’” (Jill Lorenzini, BookPage)
“Have you ever picked up a book and found yourself holding your breath as you turned the pages? That was my exact response to Maybe. It can only be described as absolutely breathtaking.” (Dawn Mooney, 5 Minutes for Books)
“In Maybe, Yamada beautifully expresses the ideals every adult wants their children to know and embrace. He offers reassurance that discovering one’s gift, place, or method of influence is not a one-time thing or quickly and easily found, and he encourages readers to take their time, explore, think, and keep their eyes and hearts open.” (Kathryn Carroll, Celebrate Picture Books)
“If you have been looking for a gorgeous book to use as a keepsake, look no further. This new release is positively stunning and celebrates the potential and possibility in children.” (Clarissa Schweider, Book Nerd Mommy)

MAYBE

“Maybe you have no idea just how good you really can be? And maybe you don’t know how much you matter? But maybe, just maybe, the world has been waiting centuries for someone exactly like you. One thing is for sure, you are here. And because you are here… anything is possible.”

Maybe is a celebration of the possibilities we hold inside us.

Follow the magical adventures of a girl who shares her ideas with the world. She builds intricate houses, adventures across a sea, creates stars, frees butterflies—and she’s only getting started. By the end of the book she’s changed her world simply by leaving her mark on it. And the world is made so much better for it.

It’s a reminder you were meant for incredible things. And maybe, just maybe, you will exceed your wildest dreams.

    THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL BOOK I CRIED! please please get this if you are considering, I bought it for my son who is in the NICU and it was such an emotional and inspiring read. His life has begun so hard with so many challenges but there is so much potential in him and this story is a reminder of the endless possibilities for his future beyond the hospital. Even the nurses cried while I read this to him. So beautifully written and illustrated!!!

    Whimsical wonders in the real world
    This is the most beautifully written and illustrated children’s book that I think I’ve ever seen. It’s absolutely in our top 10 books on consent bed time story rotation, and never wears old. The imaginative whimsy portrayed in the images are perfectly matched throughout the entire storyline. I can’t recommend this book and all others that we have read from this author enough!

The book is just so gorgeous.It made me cry.It sets the perfect tone for a young woman who’s life in the big world is just beginning. At a time right now when this country is experiencing so much ugliness and uncertainty, especially for our young ones. I truly, highly recommend this beautifully written and illustrated book.

    Molto bello come pure gli altri libri di Kobi Yamada. Mi sono piaciute un sacco le illustrazioni e mia figlia si è commossa leggendolo. Lo consiglio vivamente.

    “This is a story for everything you will do and everything you could be. It’s for who you are right now, and it’s for all the magical, unbounded potential you hold inside.”Maybe is one of the most beautiful books I have ever owned. The simple yet profound words of Kobi Yamada capture the essence of hope, the fear of uncertainty and the strength of resilience in us all, brimming throughout with positive affirmation that you can do, and be whatever you wish. With absolutely stunning painterly illustrations by Gabriella Barouch, Maybe is a wonderful gift for all ages and perfect for helping young readers to believe in themselves and what they can achieve.

    I gifted this book to my son for his high school graduation present. The message is very inspiring and the illustrations are top notch!

  13. Liz

    C’est un album jeunesse que j’adore et dont j’aime particulièrement le message que je trouve essentiel de transmettre aux enfants dès leur plus jeune âge.Petit bémol sur l’état du livre qui est arrivé abîmé (couverture abîmée par le transport, dommage)
