Book Synopsis

This sweet and playful bedtime book reminds young readers just how loved they are, from the New York Times bestselling creators author Andrea Beaty and illustrator Vashti Harrison

Love comes in many forms. It can feel tart as lemonade, or sweet as sugar cookies. Slow as a lazy morning, or fast as a relay race.

Love is there through it all: the large and small moments, the good times and bad. And at the end of the day, love settles us down to bed with a hug and kiss goodnight.

With charming, rhyming text from bestselling author Andrea Beaty and lush, heartwarming illustrations by bestselling illustrator Vashti Harrison, I Love You Like Yellow celebrates the unconditional love that pulses through life's profound and everyday moments--and the people who make them so special.

I love you like yellow.
I love you like green.
Like flowery orchid
and sweet tangerine . . .

"This bear-hug of a picture book features . . . a true diversity of characters. Harrison brings a vibrant palette, loving care, and a tight focus to these tableaux; viewers are right there with the families, witnessing their moments together." --The Horn Book Magazine
