The Heart That Found You is an absolutely adorable children's story about embarking on a quest for love. A whimsical tale only aided by its alluringly unique artwork (I especially adored the illustration of Heart being made whole), this picture book is perfect for children of any ages! It's a perfect way to show children that they're loved.

This book is a true and accurate representation of family. Especially being a parent.
This is great for those kids who ask “how much do you love me?” Like my son used to do.
I would absolutely recommend this book to all parents with small children

Created by an adoptive mother this book shows how finding someone special adds to your life. You can try to create happiness in many ways but we are full filled by our human connections. a great book for schools to show the truth and reality of adoption and how lives of children and adults can be changed by it.
The art work is simple and creative.
