Featuring the same little girl from AH Creatures Great and Small, Naoko Stoop's charming companion volume contains the text from Corinthians 13: 4 - 8. Though often used at weddings, this verse also creates the perfect child-focused story about friendship, generosity and the permanence of love. Self-taught artist Stoop paints on wood planks purchased specifically for their unique character, so no canvas is ever the same.
