What reviewers said
âA sweet approach to encouraging meaningful discussions. . . Love With Plato deals with ideas that are more abstract and, therefore, more complex, inviting children to think rather than act. We read that we can love things we can see but that âPlato said it is most important to love ideas, like GOODNESS, TRUTH, AND BEAUTY.â Text and illustrations depict examples of all three followed by a prompt that asks readers to consider what is important in their own lives. .â âKirkus Reviews
