ABC Love

Written & Illustrated by: Christiane Engel

For Ages: 5-6 years

Language: English

Topics Covered: Social-Emotional Development, Love, Family.

Summary: This book goes through the alphabet giving different examples of how to show love to those around you. It also invites the reader to think about how they feel loved. Written and illustrated in the same style as ABC Yoga, the book is easy to follow along in a large group given its bigger dimensions than the typical board book. Each page is devoted to a letter with a theme, coupled with a short sentence describing the content through the lens of an act of love. “Love is to welcome. Love is to reach out. Love is to leave a light on.” Engel does a fabulous job of showing the multitude of ways an individual can show a loved one or their community signs of love.
