We thought we knew what true love was, and now we do...because of you.  With the wonderful addition of a baby to the family, new parents find that their love grows more than they ever thought possible--more than all the raindrops that fall, more than all the sand on the beach, and more than all the stars in the sky.  With beautiful and relatable expressions, they let their child know that the love of a parent is unparalleled and unconditional.  --Publisher

Kids Can Press, 2019.  Picture Book.

In this clever book, a green lion is waiting at a red traffic light. While he waits, a series of unexpected events occur, involving such things as lightning, a lilac, library books and lima beans. Or rather, li-ghtning, li-lac, li-brary books, and li-ma beans because the text on each spread ends with Red light, green li-? and the reader must turn the page to see the whole word --- and what's happened. All the while, the lion calmly and helpfully deals with whatever shows up (even loading livestock into a lifeboat!) and wryly muses about the way life can be. Some days are not like most days, the lion explains at the beginning. But as all children know: those days are usually the most fun!  --Publisher

Fang Toronto: Tundra Books, 2024. Picture book. When three mysterious visitors from "Europe" crash-land in Mr. Li's field, he does what any good host would: he invites them back to his farmhouse and offers to help fix up their "car".
