L is for Love.
Written by Atinuke and
illustrated by Angela Brooksbank.
Walker Books 2024.
L is for Love uses the letter 'L' to describe a family waking up early to take their Loads of Lemons by Lamplight through the dark. They catch a Lift in a passing Lorry and through the Lightning they travel passing a Leopard and Lions until it gets Light and they reach the Lagoons and LOUD noises of LAGOS!
“The warm and colourful pictures are rich in a sense of place and busy with details to pore over. Ideal for anyone who wants to see the world, whose name begins with L or who just likes to Look.”
– Children’s Book of the Week, Sunday Times
“Combined with vibrant illustrations that brim with energy, the book is a feast for the senses and there is plenty of rich cultural detail to prompt further discussion.”
