Love is patient,
Love is kind . . .
Love never ends.
Naoko Stoop's charming book contains the text from Corinthians 13:4-8. Though used often at weddings, this verse also creates the perfect child-focused story about friendship, generosity, and the permanence of love. A self-taught artist, Stoop paints on planks of wood, which she buys specifically for their unique character. No canvas is ever the same!
