What Love Looks Like will make an excellent bedtime story or a way to stretch your imagination and practice mindfulness. Each spread takes Papa and Afia to a new place where they imagine all the things they can see and feel. And with every new place, they imagine they share what love can feel like. Perfect for readers who love Grace Lin & Kate Messner’s Once Upon a Book or Micha Archer’s Daniel Finds a Poem; I can’t wait to share this one with kids and grownups too!
