A beautifully illustrated, whimsical, rhyming ABC picture book by bestselling author Anita Higman. Pictures by award-winning artist Jeneal B. Rogers. This timeless message of true love is appropriate for both children and adults of all ages. 
C: "I love you like a Cookie crunch. I love you when you're late for lunch."
J: "I love you sour, I love you sweet, I love you like a Jelly treat." 
M:   I love you More than fuzzy beagles. I love you more than ice cream giggles.
N:     I love you rainbow colors bright. I love you in the starry Night.
T:    I love you much in whispers light and when you Tuck me in at night.
W:  I love you when we have the sillies, and when we’re chasing Willy-nilly.
Z:  I love you bigger than a pancake stack. I love you Zooming to the moon and back!

            My thoughts:  I LOVE YOU SOUR is the sweetest little alphabet book ever!  I absolutely adored it.  I read it to my four children who were home with me at the time, and they all laughed, even the twenty-somethings.  I absolutely loved this.  I got a kindle copy for review from Book Fun Magazine and the author, and I am going to buy a hard copy one for my own personal library. A beautiful book with lovely illustrations and a heartfelt message any mom, grandma, aunt, or dad, grandpa, or uncle will love to read to their favorite child.  5 stars for sure. Love, love, loved it. 


Just a little extra, for those who are interested . . . you know all those cool doodling color books that are everywhere now? Armonia Publishing is releasing one in March, and we're so excited we can hardly stand it! Rabbit Doodles is illustrated by the lovely and talented Elise Whittier Church, and each of the rabbits in the book is drawn from a real rabbit at Elise's local rabbit rescue. 

I've known Elise a long time, and believe me, she has a heart of gold, especially when it comes to mistreated animals. I taught with her years ago, and she was my daughter's favorite teacher. (And considering the fact that I was also one of her teachers . . . well . . . we'll just leave that one alone.) ;-)
