I love this book and this is the book I NEED right now. It’s a simple book about love and how to show and create this power in the world. We put ourselves in situations with others and listen.
I love how simple the story is and how wonderful the artwork is. I need a copy of this book for myself. It lifted up my heart today and it’s a feel-good book. I can always use more of this in my life.
You can imagine the nephew wasn’t all that crazy about this. He thought the art was sort of good and he said it was like going to church. He gave it 2 stars. It wasn’t humorous and it only had normal people in it.

E (age 7) - I think it is definitely 5 stars because I like the paintings, the words and how it teaches you about what love is.
Me - Again, Peter H Reynolds has the most beautiful illustrations. This is maybe my favorite book of the "I am" series by this team. There is a great balance of messages and varied ways to show love, including just sitting with someone and being silent. It explains compassion in a way that kids can understand. The back of the book has a wonderful author's note. 3 yoga poses and a full page meditation guide.
It is a quick but important read and can be shared when you are in the mood for reading a short book with kids.

I've read all the books in this series to my students and they frequently feature in our school assemblies. Breaking complex emotions into pieces for little kids to chew on, these books are vital in a world filled increasingly with division and hate. Not to mention the stunning artwork...
This book in particular helped my students to deal with the trauma of 2 weeks off school because of violent, racist and hostile protests all over the country and especially in our city and neighborhoods.

Powerful message to children about love, compassion, and understanding and the different dimensions and ways love can manifest.
A little hippie-dippie for me. Better if you replace "love" with "Jesus." A nice poem.
