Treasures of the Heart

By Alice Ann Miller

Poetic author Alice Ann Miller brings sentiment and importance to the treasures a child holds dear as he ever so cautiously shares them with his mother: "It's buried deep and very safe. I have it in my special place. Come along, it's through this door." Combining perspective with intricate detail and fanciful style, artist Kate Darnell allows us to envision our own treasures and to experience sharing them with those we love: "A yellow sock, my lucky rock...my favorite car, my cricket jar."

Customer Reviews

Highly Enjoyable

I enjoyed reading "Treasures of the Heart" very much! This book is as much for parents and grandparents as well as for kids. When I showed the book to my adult children, they were amused by the story as well. The illustration of this book is wonderful and the story itself is unlike so many of the other stories that are out there. Even if you don't buy "Treasures of the Heart", find it and give yourself a treat and read it! I look forward to other works by this author and illustrator.
