Love is shown in many ways. When we look closely, we see it everyday!
Love is a constant in all of our lives, but how we express that love differs person to person! This warm picture book shows children and adults expressing love in many different ways through respectful touch, nice gestures, thoughtful gifts, kind words, and special times together.
Reading together at bedtime? That's special time together.
Giving a friend your cape to wear? That's a thoughtful gift.
Saving your friend a seat on the bus? That's a nice gesture.
A great big bear hug? That's respectful touch.
Telling someone, "You've really improved!" Those are kind words
With friendly art, How Do You Love? will warm hearts and open up minds. Young readers will begin to recognize how we each express our love differently—and that’s okay!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"Gentle wake-up love." "Handmade lunch love." " ‘I'll try to eat my veggies...' love." Paired with Ontiveros's realistic cartoon scenes, which emphasize cultural inclusivity, Byrnes cheerfully offers examples of the myriad ways care and kindness can be communicated, seemingly based on the Five Love Languages. In an instance of " ‘Cool outfit!' love," a light-skinned kid in jeans gives a thumbs-up to a brown-skinned child in a headscarf. Elsewhere, a child with vitiligo receives " ‘Bear hugs are the best!' love," and a tan-skinned youth with a prosthetic leg offers " ‘Want to play fetch?' love" to a dog. Pedagogical back matter prompts readers to reflect upon how they themselves express affection, stressing that there's no one right way to convey it and suggesting possible options for those seeking inspiration (caregivers may appreciate the recommendation to pick up toys). Ages 3–5.
