Three loves
God Gave Us Love book blog tour. Words by Lisa Tawn Bergren. Art by Laura J. Bryant.
The author and the artist did a fabulous job of appealing to the imaginations of young readers. This is an excellent book for preschool children. They love dramatic play, pretending, and adding real life to animals.
The story is about a bear family. Grandpa Bear takes the lead in the family to teach one young bear cub about the different kinds of love. The bear family comes to life through the pictures. When Grandpa takes the young bear cub on a fishing trip, the young cub becomes frustrated when the playful otters splash and scare off the fish. Grandpa explains, “God wants us to show the otter’s love… He wants us to show everyone his love.” But the young cub is finding it very difficult to show love to someone or something that seems to be working against them. Grandpa, then, explains that sometimes we like something better than we love it. Grandpa likes and loves the young cub. The same kind of love that God has for each of us.
When they return from their fishing trip, Grandpa explains to the cub another kind of love: the love between a mama and a papa. God gave us three kinds of love: between mamas and papas, between friends and family, and God’s love.
