Fresh star stories with a cool online feel.

While both of these titles average Amazon ratings in the high 4 stars, many reviewers seem to have been motivated by the fact that they're already fans of the person penning the book. One such review of "Take Heart, My Child" read: "Ainsley Earhardt is one of the classiest ladies in news right now. Add to that, she is a godly woman, a beautiful lady, a southern belle, and a wonderful mother. We need more women like this writing children's books." Another person, commenting on "Through Your Eyes," noted that "Ansley [sic] Earhardt has made it a point of donating profits from her books to help veterans and their families and this alone was worth the purchase."

Other reviewers, however, noted that while they liked Earhardt as a person, her writing skills weren't exactly on a professional level. One of the reviews of her earlier title was directed at the author, telling her: "Ainsley, I love you. Glad you got the job. Very disappointed with this book, you should've put a little effort into it," while the latter book drew such comments as "If we're honest with ourselves and put fandom aside, this isn't a good book ... No talent, no originality — a clearly infantile book. If she wasn't on TV this wouldn't have ever merited publication on any scale."
