Summary: I've been looking for "LOVE" - and I've finally found it!
Review: My parents bought this book for me when I was a little girl, in the 1970s. It had a powerful effect on me. I felt that someone, at last, understood what *I* experienced - the feelings of abandonment, of not fitting in, of not being liked, and of not giving up despite all of that...

Aside from the emotional impact, it was a fun book to read, almost a three- dimensional puzzle. The pages come in different shapes, and have a variety of cut-outs. It's fantastic! I have read this book so many times, I had to tape most of the pages back together.

I have treasured my very well-worn copy of LOVE for decades, and I have searched the used-book stores for another copy. I never found anyone who had even heard of it.

I am so excited to find that LOVE is available again! I hope you'll enjoy the book as much as I have, and share the feelings of the little girl in the story. With the right attitude, it *is* an abundant universe.

Summary: Cruel and Touching
Review: someone lend me this book, I thought it was just another "visually beautiful' book, until I started reading it and was totally engrossed in it, I cried when I read the last page, tears keep flowing down...amazing and magical how that few words touched me! It was a book that has little words and beautiful graphics, the story was told in an almost simple and straight forward way. The story about an orphan girl, who was abandoned by the parents at the age of nine, basically nobody like her and she was unattractive on the outside, doing many things that pissed people off..well I think she was trying to protect herself and distanced herself from people around her, it seems that she had given up hope on people, until the last page you realised that special thing that is always in her that she treasured and kept safe...it's like the whole world had let her down and she received no love at all from others, but she did not give up, she had hope and love in her, even though she was given none...I have no idea how to describe how the book touched me, it certainly touched me deeply, I wil never forget this wee girl...never ever...

Summary: A perfect gift
Review: Touching and beautiful both visually and in its text. A special book that invites you to be a part of it as you flip through the pages of different shapes and colours.
