You Can Tell Me Anything is such a beautiful work. It moved and inspired me, and the drawings were the best emotional depictions for a children’s book I have ever seen. It’s rare to find an illustrator who can capture feelings in such an accurate and moving way. It warms my heart to imagine a parent reading that book to a child on their lap. With a guide like this, you can give your child all the emotional security they’ll ever need.

I was honoured to be asked to create the illustrations for Elizabeth Peck’s book ‘You Can Tell Me Anything’. It’s the sort of book I wish I’d had as a child. I wish every child could grow up being reassured by this timeless and beautiful message.

I received your book today You Can Tell Me Anything today. Oh my, it’s beautiful! I’m not ashamed to say it moved me to tears. It’s my firm belief that every parent should have a copy and read it regularly to their children! Not only is it a beautiful book but it reminds us to stop and slow down and listen to our children. I love it so much I’m sharing it on all the childminding Facebook pages I belong to, along with a link to buy a copy.

I read this book last night, and I think it’s wonderful. It’s sweet but not sugary; it’s enormously reassuring, or will be to any young person who can’t really quite believe that the things she does wrong, or the things she can’t help being, cannot but affect the love of… her mother, or whoever is the person who is there when the wrong things happen, etc. And above, all it’s beautifully written. I love the simple yet exact verse.

I also like the drawings very much; Loïs Cordelia has caught the author’s tone very well.
