I absolutely adore this book. There is so much to look at and explore! The message is simple-with a little love you can brighten up anybody's day!! There's so much to tell even with no words said. There are so many hidden pictures that even adults can find looking at the pictures intriguing! Some things only adults would understand! A I love Lucy picture in a bedroom! There are so many lives and stories being told for all of the individuals in the small town. You'll have to look over the book plenty of times to see how each person's life is changed! It's brilliant!!
