A wonderful perspective of love and hope
Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2021
This book was an exciting way to show the adventure and the hard work our community has gone through to have keep our children fed. We all know how important the food boxes have been on our community but the child in the book allows our children to gain perspective that the boxes don't just magically appear. It shows how important our entire community is and how much love is put in every box.
I also love that it is in both English and Spanish. My children are learning Spanish and having a book written in both languages allows them an opportunity to read in Spamsh but have the English to guide them and reassure they are understanding what they read.
I recommend this to any reader, not just the children. It is fun and will warm your heart.

It also gave Mrs. Antonik, a budding author of children’s books, the idea and inspiration for her latest work, “Boxes of Love.” Read more.
