Another gem by Tomie dePaola
I absolutely love Tomie dePaola's artwork, especially the way he depicts children, and this book is no exception. (Growing up with the Christmas tale "Old Befana") was my first introduction to his art.) The illustrations have both the vivid and saturated color that make them look modern, while also conjuring up a sense of a bygone era from traditional folklore. I think the illustrations would be appealing to children.The text is very simple. Each page shows a child in an outdoor setting telling something he/she loves it. "I love you, sun" for example. In turn, each different child loves a sun, a sheep, the wind, a tree, a bird, a fish, a flower, a rabbit, a rock, a bug,stars, water, a wolf, the moon, and the earth. The cast of children is ethnically diverse. I sometimes buy the English/Spanish version of children's books if the text is so simple that I can't quite justify buying the book, or if I can't imagine wanting to read it hundreds of times. The Spanish keeps it interesting for me, and I think it provides a good developmental opportunity for my son. Note that this book is small (5 1/4 by 5 3/4 inches) and rectangular, while the English-only version is much bigger and cut in the shape of a heart.

Love this little book, so does baby!
We love this sweet little book! I had never seen it before and purchased on a whim. I love the illustrations and the tender message of care for all creation. It's one of my baby's favorites, too, she loves to turn the pages and is starting to point to some of the pictures.

A great addition to our reading library
My family really enjoys this book. The illustrations are pretty and showcase children of different skin colors, which I value. I really want my child to respect people, animals, and the planet, so the messaging in this is a great start (my son is only two). He's picking up on both Spanish and English words, and when we go outside we extend our reading lessons to find the flores, talk to the tierra, and admire the arboles. As a dual-language book, it is a fairly straightforward read (no subjunctive or even past tense), but as a dual-language book with messages of admiration for the beauty around us, it is special.

Best book purchase!
I love everything about this book. My child comes from an American and Latin household. There is so much excitement when we read this book and when we are out in the street we name things from the book in English and Spanish. I wish every book came in this amazing format!
