By Todd Parr
Even though I wasn’t looking for picture books at my last visit to the library, I couldn’t help but see this one on the new books shelf.
I love, love, love Todd Parr’s books for little ones (and adults). Some of my favorites include:
It’s Okay to be Different
It’s Okay to Make Mistakes
The Family Book
And The Goodbye Book
His latest book has exactly what my soul has been craving. Familiar, bold, colorful illustrations catch my eyes, while his observations about peace make me smile. They also remind my inner child what my adult self has forgotten.
We all need peace. While this may seem like a beautifully illustrated book for children, it’s really a book for everyone (including adults).
As always, his book includes a love note from the author at the end.
