Heart to Heart
With her trademark vibrant palette, Ehlert creates a clever rebus puzzle of colorful, cut-out shapes, vegetables, numbers, and letters that ultimately translates as a love note. Language play and visual symbols make it a fun challenge to decipher for young readers who are able to work it out. Whether alone or with an adult, they will find a lot of humor in Ehlert’s playful ingenuity. ©2017 Cooperative Children's Book Center
