"In this gorgeous and important book, 'The Magic Is Inside You,' Author Cathy Domoney and illustrator Karen Davis provide the words and the visuals for something that all young children experience –positive and negative thoughts and emotions. Young children often do not have the language skills to express how they are feeling and this is where I always think a quality book comes into play. Books such as ‘The Magic Is Inside You,’ provide children with the words to express themselves and they shine a mirror on situations or emotions that they may be experiencing. Everyone wants to see their life reflected in literature – to know they are not alone, to know that someone else understands." Megan Daly @ childrensbooksdaily.com
