  A great book to encourage kids to questions and wonder. Simple rhymes and bright pictures so it’s really easy for kids to follow and get the message.

• Mark Harrington

  This beautiful book, has small curiosities on each page which open up discussion and educate children at all levels. Simply written to support early readers but enough images and word to open the dialogue. A must for any classroom and children’s book shelf.

  Intriguing, insightful and thought provoking. The simple writing of the story draws you in and, although it is simple, the language truly makes you think. This book is truly wonderful. It makes me as an adult think carefully about what I am teaching my children (both my own children and the children who I teach).
  The words and the pictures work seamlessly together to engage the child (and adult) in thoughtful fancies of what life could be if you were more like Alice. It is a simply wonderful book that I would recommend to any parent.

  Children are born curious - that's how they learn. This book taps into that innate curiosity to encourage its readers to think more deeply about the world around them.
  So what do we mean by curious? Is it looking into space? Is it learning to ride a bike? Is it playing a musical instrument? Or something else? Of course it's all of these - after all, these are all things we've had to learn how to do!
  Curiosity means you are observe. You think. You see. You explore. You solve. It sparks a fire inside you. It means you're human!
  When you are curious is great for encouraging discussion. It does this by using one idea per page, accompanied by a bright and inviting picture. Rather than being told what to think, readers are invited to question and explore. We really enjoyed it!

• Nina Mroue

  This is such a great book encouraging young readers to be curious with such an important message. My daughters absolutely loved the book! It is well written and thought out with wonderful rhymes easy for children to read and understand. I would definitely recommend!

• Michelle

  Although there aren't many words to this book, the words that there are really encourage and promote conversation, leading young readers to consider what they are curious about, and what can be achieved when you show curiosity about the world around you.
  
  The bold illustrations also encourage discussion, with images of activities and professions, and a fun maze midway through the book.
  
  All in all, this was a thought provoking read, and my daughter and I enjoyed talking about what was shown in the illustrations, and what we are curious about in our day to day lives.

  When You Are Curious is a brilliantly simple yet captivating book which can inspire young readers to dream about all of the possibilities life can offer!
  
  Each page gives wonderful suggestions of career choices, and opportunities all around us to learn and discover more, if we remain curious.
  
  The illustrations offer lots to look at and discuss, perhaps in areas children won’t be aware of.
  
  There are opportunities to discuss space, travel, science, learning, and plenty more!
  
  A lovely book for curious little minds!
