A good children's book with a great message. The illustrations were a bit simple but still very approachable for children.

Matt goes to sleep and dreams of people talking about him. His mom comes in and holds him and says how much he means to her and how much love is within his heart. She tells him that he will learn to master his feelings and not let them get to him so much. She tells him that mistakes happen and that people will forgive him and that if life gets cloudy and he can't find his way, she will be there. 

I personally was not a fan of this book. I think it would've been better with illustrations to go along with the words, but it has a really good point and lesson to it.

A big message in a small book through beautiful water colored illustrations.This book let's children know that their parents always love them  not matter what. It tells them making mistakes is a part of learning process .Don't stop if you fail in something.

All Of Matt's Treasures is an uplifting and positive picture book for a bit older children about embracing mistakes as a part of growth. It follows Matt who has a bad dream about failing and telling his mum about it, she helps him understand that he is loved just because he is himself and how his so called mistakes are a natural part of the road of learning. 

I liked how warm the story felt, I think it's a great book for children who tend to get a bit homesick too. A sweet way to remind them about how loved they are. 

The art wasn't really for me, but that's just personal taste, as the colours are pretty and it's a really soft art style. I think some sentences and ways the author used to describe certain things might be a bit difficult to understand and follow for a child, but other than that I really liked the positive message this book had. 

The ARC I read still needs a lot of editing, which made it a bit hard to read and to rate  this book at the moment. (I won't rate this book on goodreads, as the version felt not complete enough for me to give a honest rating. I will change that as soon as I'm able to read the finished copy though. So long I'll only post the review.)
