Editorial Reviews

Hearts abound in this tale . . . Alliteration and simple, elegant rhymes create a pleasing melody and fun read-aloud. A joyful friendship tale begging to be read on Valentine's Day or before a thoughtful nature walk or even a nap." –Kirkus Reviews

The Book

"The world is full of little hearts. 
Each one a sign of love.
Some are found upon the ground.
Some are up above."

The reader is invited to come along with an adorable group of animal friends as they put on their detective hats and discover the many shapes of little hearts that they find in nature.  

Charles Ghigna, a.k.a, Father Goose, creates a window into the beauty and wonderment of the great outdoors. The book will open little minds and hearts to the art and skill of observing the shape of hearts in the natural world that surrounds them.  

Written in rhyming stanzas, and visually enriched by  soft gentle illustrations, this book encourages little ones to slow down and take their time as they delight in hidden heart-shaped gifts that are just waiting to be discovered.  

 "Little Hearts: Finding Hearts in Nature" would be fantastic to share for Valentine's Day or any day!  I love the book and highly recommend it.
