📖Book Info
While walking in the garden one day, Annie, a curious little ant from Hillsville, meets a single poppy flower called Love. They become instant friends, sharing stories, laughing and talking for hours on end. Then one autumn day Annie goes to visit Love, but Love is not there. Remembering the rhyme that Love told her, she sets off on an adventure to find Love.
Love is with you every day.
Love is never far away.
Go search, go find and then you'll see
All the places Love can be.
But don't forget to look within
For often, that's where Love begins.
May Annie's story inspire anyone who has experienced the loss of a loved being, to look and perhaps still find them within their lives and within themselves.
