An affectionately observant picture book that captures loving's universality . . . Smudgy, thickly colored artwork has an approachable, naïve quality that suits the text's minimalism as it builds to the repeated observation that creatures also share love for experiencing love.--Publishers Weekly ""10/6/25"" Love is love is love in this collection of what is most loved . . . Rylant's images are the epitome of sweetness . . . opportunities abound for little ones to make their own lists . . . Tenderly expressed sentiments, ideal for Valentine's Day.--Kirkus ""November 1, 2025"" Arranged as neatly ordered vignettes on crisp, open pages, Rylant's childlike illustrations in expressive, thick acrylic paint match the very simple text nicely. Designed for the youngest listeners, this concept book is perfect for baby or toddler storytimes. Hand to little ones who are drawn to Todd Parr's distinctive style or to Marla Frazee's In Every Life (2023). Sweetly simple.--Booklist ""January 2026""
