Adapted from the Bible
Wendy Anderson Halperin
This celebrated illustrator has taken the definitions of "love" from 1 Corinthians 13 in the New Testament, and has illustrated different scenarios for each of the verses. Across each two-page spread is a single verse such as "Love is patient. Love is kind." On the left-hand page, we see several illustrated examples of what it means to not be patient or kind, while the facing right-hand page illustrates the same scenes now re-configured to demonstrate the alternative. In addition to these coordinating pictures, there are illustrations of ongoing scenarios that evolve over the course of the book.
This is simply one book that must be experienced visually to be fully appreciated! There's so much to look at and talk about that I'll bet you'll be enjoying it with your child for years and years to come. This smaller version of the original hardcover measures 8.5" x 6".
(Please note that one of the left-hand illustrations depicts soldiers pointing guns at a family sitting on the ground with their children. The right-hand page shows the family standing joyfully with hands upraised and no soldiers in sight. While war and persecution are a reality of our time, very young children should not have to deal with this reality, so you may want to skip this page if you're sharing the book with the very young.)
