Yago’s Heartbeat

It’s hard to know who the target audience of this book really is: it tries to be a children’s picture book, but the text is far too long and rambling to really capture or hold the interest of most children; I think the audience who will really appreciate are the loved ones of special needs children who are looking for comfort.  It’s easy to see what it’s trying to do: to teach readers to see beyond their eyes when considering the lives of children with limitations.  It’s a worthy purpose, and it’s a valiant effort — I just wish they’d had better editors to help it achieve better success.
