- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2016In this beautifully written and gorgeously illustrated book, we are introduced to Phoebe, a little girl with an infectious laugh and the ability to "shine happiness" wherever she goes. In order to complete her mission as a "happiness hero," Phoebe wants a special present for her 5th birthday, a present that she, unfortunately, does not receive. Instead, she receives a gift that is quite unexpected. A camera. At first, Phoebe is puzzled about how she is going to be a superhero with a camera, but in time, and with a little imagination, Phoebe sets off on an adventure with her camera and her best friend, Lamby, chasing the sun and capturing the light around her. Click. Click. Click. Click. Phoebe sparks smiles everywhere she goes with her camera. And, by the end of the story, Phoebe comes to some important realizations about herself. A heartfelt, warm, and inviting story, Phoebe will inspire girls and boys, alike, as well as children and adults, to look at their world with fresh, new eyes.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2016Love this story! It covers how we take the sadness from not get something we were hoping to get and turn it into something magical, wonderful and beautiful. There is much beauty out there, behind the lens and through what the lens captures. We all have moments of sadness, but learning how to overcome them, work through them, finding a hobby, like photography, can help us through. My son loves taking pictures already at the age of three. I can't wait to share this with him!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2016The story of Phoebe's unexpected introduction to photography produces wonderful lessons about creativity, imagination and empowerment. Through a well woven story about Phoebe and her supportive family (including a very special stuffed toy lamb) the young reader is introduced to a new perspective of our magical world as seen through the camera lens. It's a beautifully illustrated storybook that will be shared with our grandchildren to enjoy.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2016What a special book! My 3 year old and I were instantly hooked, and I can already tell that this is one that we will read over (and over and over, as little ones like to do). Phoebe's experience is one that we can all identify with, and that's what makes this story so engaging. The author has created a book that is so fresh and original, and yet it is so relatable. So happy to have added this book to our personal library!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2016In reading this book with my 5-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son, we all learned a valuable lesson, in that, life doesn't always go the way we expect. Sometimes it gets better! Highly recommend this book to parents who want to teach their children about finding the silver lining in their lives and giving new things a chance.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2016What an adorable story about a little girl who loves to make everyone happy. I was looking for a new book to read to my son and came across this treasure about Phoebe who gets a camera for her birthday. This is perfect as I was about to buy my son a camera for his birthday too. The story is fun and engaging and the illustrations are so darn cute. Highly recommend!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2016Phoebe loves to play and laugh and spread joy around her. Her parents call her their "happiness hero" and their "bright light". Phoebe loves to be called a superhero and she wants nothing more than a bright light cape for her birthday to spread more happiness around the world. What her parents lead her to discover is that light can be uncovered in unexpected ways. They surprise her with a camera and she chases the light beams to discover her other superhero capabilities. This lovely written and illustrated book will teach your kids that each gift has a purpose in life and if you let them wonder and ponder what they can do with it, they will discover new ways to shine their bright light.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2016An adorable story about a young girl who falls in love with photography and begins to see the world around her in a new light. Gorgeous illustrations that make this book perfect for young and old. My children and I have fallen in love with this beautiful book and it will be one we read over and over again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rather expensive for a paperback book
The story is nice but the price was too expensive .
- Amazon CustomerReviewed in Canada on May 2, 2016
5.0 out of 5 stars This is a fun story about a little girl who gets a camera ...
This is a fun story about a little girl who gets a camera for her birthday instead of a much wanted superhero cape. She manages to find the magic in photography and turns the beautiful images she can capture into her own superpower. So many little lessons hidden in the story. Wonderful read for kids whether they are interested in photography or not, and it might just spark an interest!
