I love a good bedtime book and when you combine a bedtime book with calming breathing exercises I am overjoyed. Colleen captures the essence of peace in this beautifully illustrated book. From the very moment you and your little reader open this book, to the very last page you are practicing the art of quality breathing and meditating. I love the simple text that is complimented by the images of parental animals lovingly helping their little ones prepare for a night of comfortable rest. Give this book a look. It will become a bedtime family favorite.

This book has all the goods. It is a story in rhyme that reminds us about hope and kindness. The illustrations are done by Gloria's son. I love a mother/son creative collaboration. The soft colors used in the images are so peaceful. It is perfect for nap and bedtime reads. Gloria writes a relatable tale about how to overcome and connect with love and kindness. She reminds us that smallest gift or gesture can mean so much. I love how many different conversations can come from this book. This is a great book for classrooms and families to read together and talk about kindness.
This is a great read anytime but especially during Valentine's Day. I read it with my son and we both had moments of empathy and fond memories of lovies dear to us. I have learned from Amy Varoce so many details about her book. The stories are from true events she has collected from friends. The illustrator that created the funny relatable illustrations also designs wrapping paper hence all the wonderful patterns to mesmerize over throughout the book. I feel that this book is perfect for all ages. Whether you are reading to a current lovey transporter or a retired lovey handler, Lovey Adventures is a book everyone can enjoy.

Take a leap of faith and check out this up coming family favorite story.
