I love how this workbook is organized by topics. The pages are really fun with cute illustrations and simple text. The Cards are very cute as well, and so practical to take along with you. I left both workbook and cards in the #littlefreelibrary, but they already disappeared 🤭 They were definitely a success !

I really enjoyed Kate Searle’s other book My Soul Treasure, so I was quite excited to discover Find your treasure.
