A Favorite Book About Love
>> Wednesday, February 2, 2011 –
Books,
Valentine's Day
February is here. It rolled in ferocious and not to be missed. We hunkered down last night with a blizzard blowing strong outside and sat by the fire enjoying some of our favorite Valentine books. On the top of that list is this book:
{Adapted from the Bible by Wendy Anderson Halperin}
It is the words of Paul from 1 Corinthians 13. That's it for the written word part of this book.
But each page is filled top to bottom, left to right with pictures. Lots and lots of pictures. Each definition of love takes up 2 pages. On the left page is pictures of what love is not (for example: not being kind or patient).
On the right is what loving someone by being kind and patient could look like.
The pictures are so good for kids and key for "getting" what real love is. And showing them that love is a verb, an action word.
This book is not to be kept on the bookshelf all year long, only to be pulled off for Valentine's. It is a book to be referred to often.
