Danny P.: I originally wanted to buy this for one of my neices or nephews to get them introduced to Steven but I absolutely couldn't bring myself to give it away on the first copy. It's such a cute book that tells the story of how Steven came to be through the age of Pink and is totally adorable.

PWDecker: I recently caught up to the tv series, but I haven't yet watched the movie. This children's picture book adapts Steven's story as revealed in the finale to the tv series. The artwork is simple and beautiful. The design is so creative, having the reader physically move the book to read the different narrator's stories. Just like the tv show, this book gives young readers great things to think about when it comes to perspective and identity.
I give this book a 5/5. If you are a fan of the show, you will enjoy this book. If you know a young person who is obsessed with this show, this would make a great gift. For ALL ages!

Swank Ivy: The Tale of Steven is a wonderful, timeless-feeling storybook about identity, authority, and finding your own way. It’s got an innovative design that requires the reader to turn the book upside-down, sideways, and right-side-up to get the whole story, sometimes all on the same spread of art and text, and as we come to find out ultimately, this “tale of Steven” really is STEVEN’S story.
We begin with White Diamond, matriarch of the Gem homeworld, setting the stage–and not only does she frame the other Diamonds uncharitably (especially the littlest Diamond, Pink), she even sets the tone by admonishing THE READER straight away, scolding us to turn the book her way to read her words. (We must turn the book upside-down to read her perspective. Very nice.)
As we listen to White Diamond tell us how ridiculous Pink Diamond is and frame her as “impossible to understand,” we also see exactly why Pink felt driven to leave her home. White apparently appointed herself the authority on keeping Pink in her place, and we’re treated to White’s huge pale hands holding little Pink Diamond in her tiny pink throne, "right"-side-up. White’s perspective is proper, and...
