What is love

from 嘉宝讲故事 · host 嘉宝讲故事

A beautiful fable about the nature of love, from beloved, award- winning picture book creators Mac Barnett and Carson Ellis. "What is love?" a young boy asks. "I can't answer that," his grandmother says, and so the boy goes out into the world to find out. But while each person he meets —the fisherman, the actor, and others —has an answer to his question, not one seems quite right. Could love really be a fish, or applause, or the night? Or could it actually be something much closer to home? This tender, funny tale is an original take on the “I love you" story, a picture book treasure for all ages to read and cherish. A CLASSIC LOVE STORY: A wonderful narrative voice and spectacular pictures give this book the feel of a modern classic. Fans of The Runaway Bunny, Guess How Much I LoveYou, and Love You Forever will adore this book. ENJOY: Many books about the love between parents and children are told from an adult's point of view. This book begins from the child'sperspective, and it's funny and unexpected in ways that children can relate to, while being thoughtful in ways that adults will appreciate. Like all great children's books, this book can be understood on many levels. A BOOK ABOUT FINDING YOURSELF: Theboy's journey takes him to many different people, whose descriptions of what love means to them is very much about how they see themselves and their lives.
