A Perfect Pet for Peyton - 5 Love Languages

[Sarah is the winner of this giveaway. Thanks so much to Northfield Publishers for sponsoring it! You can buy a copy of A Perfect Pet for Peyton at Amazon]

perfect pet.jpg Gary Chapman seems to have never stopped applying his 5 Love Language model to specific situations: couples, families, parents, singles. Now he has found a way to teach them to children!

From Amazon:

This wonderfully imaginative children's hardcover book by bestselling authors Gary Chapman and Rick Osborne, featuring four-color illustrations (with hidden details!) by Wilson Williams, Jr., will help children learn the importance of love. Based on Gary's highly successful The 5 Love LanguagesĀ®, A Perfect Pet for Peyton tells an entertaining and playful story of five children who each, with the help of Mr. Chapman and the unique pets at his special emporium, discover their own personal love language. Children and parents alike will experience firsthand the power of the love languages as they cuddle up and spend precious time together reading this book over and over again.

The cast of child characters in this whimsical story include:

Peyton, one of the birthday celebrants, loves to help others, and appreciates it when others do little things for him.
Penny, Peyton's twin sister, who receives love best when others spend quality time with her.
Jayla, one of Penny's close friends, is always saying nice things about people. Her love language is words of affirmation.
Kevin, one of Peyton's close friends, enjoys giving things to people.
Sofia loves to pet the animals, and to show her love for others with special hugs.

I'm excited to see this book for kids. I didn't know that Gary Chapman was moving into the child's book market, but I'm happy to see it!

I'm always on the lookout for good children's books and this looks like one we'd really enjoy reading over, and over, and over, and over again (well, I'd enjoy the first few anyway - ha, ha). I'd really like to share this with my daughter - I think her love language is spending time together....
