Animals Spell Love

48 pp. | Godine | December, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-1-56792-586-9 $15.95
(4) K-3 "Begin at the ends of the foxes' tails to find the letters in Amor." This graphically intricate book (typeface is an illustrative element) uses animal bodies and shapes to introduce the word love in English and fifteen other languages. It's a fine (and timely) idea, but most spreads are so visually complicated that readers may feel not love but frustration.
