A very sweet story about a girl with with a very big heart! It had a message important to people in all walks of life, and stressed the importance of inclusion. Amaleigh loves her town and loves to read. Seeing that her local library is facing challenges gives her the idea and inspiration to make changes. She wants her friends and community who speak different languages to enjoy the library and strives to make sure they do! I loved this book!!

Amaleigha is a super sweet little girl who loves to visit the library and enjoys the many books that are available for her. She notices that other children, who don’t speak English, don’t have as many books available to them. So Amaleigha sets out to raise money to fix that and builds a little library so anyone has access to the books that they were able to get at any time. This was an incredibly sweet story that I was happy to share with my kiddos and we all thoroughly enjoyed. I really loved the directions on how to build your own little free library. I would absolutely recommend this book.

This is a cute short book for you little ones. I read this book with my grandbabies, and they loved it. I think a lot of the school libraries have the same issue about not having othe language books, and my grandbabies could relate to the story in that aspect.

This is a cute little story. It is nice to read an uplifting children’s book as I think it provides inspiration to the young children who read it. I highly recommend this story for anyone who has young children. This author writes good stories and I do enjoy reading them.

What a cute story. This is the second book I have read about Amaleigha. She is a clever young lady with big ideas. This time she wants to help her friends, who speak other languages, have more options of books to read. I love how her ideas bring the community together. And at the end, it shows how we can do the same.

What an adorable story! I loved everything about this book. Not only did it teach kids, and adults, a lesson regarding how to get book boxes set up in your neighborhoods, but I loved that it also included other ethnicities as well. It even included some dialogue in Spanish, German, and Chinese. What a wonderful idea! I love that the main character is such a wonderful young girl that not only loves to read but wants to bring books to all the kids in her area. With the help of the adults around her she can accomplish her goal of bringing books of all languages to not only the book box but her school library too. This is a highly recommended book for kids. In fact, I am purchasing several for Christmas gifts. I encourage you to do the same. All kids need to read this book.

Amaleigha loves to read, but she wants everyone in her community to have the same chances that she has to get books they can read. Amaleigha wants people of different cultures and backgrounds,to have access to books in their own languages. Amaleigha comes up with a plan, and executes it. She gets other involved, and before you know it the whole community is helping out. This is a great story about setting your mind to something and accomplishing your goals, especially when that goal helps others!

“Amaleigha was a very compassionate 6-year-old. Many said that she never missed an opportunity to help others and that her heart was as big as the world or maybe even bigger.”
Amaleigha Loves a Good Story is another cute story by Janice Pratt. It’s such a sweet read. A beautifully illustrated children’s story that captures the imagination of both young, and old alike. Amaleigha sets off again, to make more of a difference in her community coming up with another fantastic idea that she hopes will better her local community. She might be little, but she thinks big. And her community are about to reap the rewards of her clever mind. As with Amaleigha’s other story, this book also inspires the imagination, but also promotes the idea that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. It has a sweet, interesting, and fun plot- with bright and colourful illustrations that will definitely hold a child’s interest. The messages are inspirational and easy for children to understand. This cute and quirky story was engaging and fun, feeding both the imagination, as well as inspiring creative thinking, being productive, making a difference, reading, and contributing to community. Happy reading!

Amaleigha is a small girl with HUGE ambitions to change the world! When she realizes that her local library faced a big problem she worked with the community to make changes happen! I love that Amaleigha has high ambitions to make the world a better place. It goes to show that hard work and determination can make things happen! Amaleigha is an inspiration to today’s youth! Her adventures strike up conversations with my son about how we can help our community. The vibrant illustrations bring the story to life and keep it engaging. I can not wait to read more of Amaleigha’s adventures!

This was a really good story! For a children’s book it was very inspiring too. I really like the lesson inside this book that says if you have enough determination you can make anything a reality. My daughter is too young to enjoy this book, she wouldn’t understand the message inside or anything really, but I really want to read this to her when she gets older and can understand that she can make a difference in the world if she just imagines and tries.

Amaleigha is back in another adventure. This young girl is a thinker and a problem solver. She is always thinking of others and how she can help. As a lover of books and stories she wants to share that love with her community. She is lucky that she has people in her life that are more than happy to support her and her quests. With inspirational messages and colourful illustrations Amaleigha’s story will have your child’s creative minds thinking of their own ways of helping others.

Amaleigha Loves a Good Story by Janice Pratt 4 Stars
Amaleigha is back with some more big ideas. She is a smart six year old with a heart of gold. She loves to read and visits the library often. One day while there, she notices that while there is a large selection of books for her to choose from, there are not many books in other languages. This makes her sad knowing the bilingual children have to read the same books over and over. An idea starts forming but she knows that she’ll need help to accomplish her goal. This is a terrific book to show children how to think about and help others. I love how the author adds instructions at the back of the book explaining how you can do what Amaleigha did.

I love finding new authors. This is the first book by this author I have read and I wish my children were young enough to also read it. I like how the author brings the characters to life and how down to earth they are. The story was really inventive and creative. I really think that this book would inspire kids and help them learn how to help others. I really recommend this book for kids and believe that it teaches a good lesson.

Amaleigha is a 6 year old with a big heart who likes to spread kindness and LOVES books!! One day she noticed that her library didn’t have a lot of books for kids who speak a different language. So she came up with a plan to solve that problem and she enlisted others for help. She enlisted donations at school and in the community to raise money to purchase more books and make a book box that would be open for kids to get books even when the school and library were closed.

Amaleigha is a little girl who loves to read books. She visits her school library often and reads as many stories as she can. One day while visiting her school library Amaleigha discovers that there seems to be a shortage of books written in different languages. There are no books available to read for those from different countries that have come to live in her community. Amaleigha comes up with a plan and with the help of her school and her community they set out to solve this problem.
Amaleigha is a smart little girl that is wise beyond her years. She is great at problem solving and comes up with solutions before putting a plan into motion. Amaleigha is a true inspiration for children of all ages. This book was beautifully written, and the illustrations were exquisite. A must read for all ages!

She has become a little role model. I love reading her stories to my grandchildren. She has wonderful ideas and the author always posts tips and items about her ideas in the back. I loved this story. I am a bookworm myself and love the Little Free Libraries. Making a bilingual box was a fantastic idea and she had some amazing ideas to go along with how to do it and get it put together. She knew how to ask for help and to do this. I enjoyed reading the story. It’s fun and the kids are learning while being entertained. It’s also a conversation starter. That’s my favorite item about these books. They open the lines of communication between adult and child. I can’t wait to find more of these to read and add to my grandchildren’s library.

Amaleigha loves to read and visit her school library all the time. It is a great place to find new books and stories but she notices there is a shortage of certain books.
While her school and community have many people who have come to live there from different countries, the library doesn’t have many books for them to read in their own languages. Find out how Amaleigha solves this problem.
Sometimes when you dream, it takes a while for it to become a reality. I have wanted to write books since I was a little girl and fell in love with my home town library. I read books at school, at home, in bed and even in the bathtub. I just couldn’t get enough of far away places, brave heroes and heroines and the experience of getting lost in a new and amazing adventure in each book. Through the years, I became the owner of a preschool, a public librarian, a school librarian and a children’s yoga teacher but no mater what I did I shared stories with children. Finally, at age 62, I have published my first book but I know it won’t be my last. Check out Amaleigha and her big idea!
