Honey, I Love and Other Love Poems (Paperback)$6.99
In Stock at Our Distributor - Usually Ships in 1-5 days
DescriptionAn ALA Notable Children's Book HONEY, I LOVE Ages 7 to 11 Love don't mean all that kissing Sixteen poems tell of love and the simple joys of everyday life, seen through the eyes of a child: playing with a friend, skipping rope, riding on a train--or keeping Mama company till Daddy gets back.
Each of these sixteen "love poems" is spoken straight from the heart of a child. Riding on a train, listening to music, playing with a friend...each poem elicits a new appreciation of the rich content of everyday life. And each poem is accompanied by a beautiful drawing, both portrait and panorama, that deepens the insights contained in the singing words.
