Illustrated by
Jennifer Plecas.
A curly-haired girl dances across rich, creamy, well-designed pages as she describes in quick, snappy vignettes the many ways we express, feel, and sometimes question love. This sentimental offering isn't as saccharine as Joan Walsh Anglund's books or as original as Ruth Kraus's, but it's reminiscent of both.
