A book to snuggle up with and smile
Snuggly warmth beams from every page as the various ways in which love is shown, comes across in familiar ways. This is a picture book rotating around the theme of love between family, friends, neighbors, and relatives. It's written in flowing rhyme and in short, understandable phrases, which give a gentle atmosphere and artistic flow. Each scene presents a familiar situation (going on a walk with family, sitting on the couch under a blanket, etc.), making sure readers will identify with more than a few. The positive atmosphere radiates from each moment as the characters beam and smile. There's also a very large diversity offered, making this a read for everyone. The illustrations are bright and cheerful with bold colors, while holding a natural feeling. There are enough details to give readers things to gaze at and find. The individuals as well as settings are no problem to identify. It's fun to gaze at each page, especially since the sense of warmth, acceptance, care and love is more than obvious. Love is more than a phrase and often comes across best in everyday things and situations. This book concentrations on that aspect and shows how playing together, receiving help, spending time with each other, and such situations often radiate true love. It's definitely a 'feel good' read and works well as an uplifting read or even a nice snuggle before bedtime. I received a DRC from the publisher and really enjoyed the way the illustrations and rhyme flowed.
