My Heart Is Like  A Zoo by Michael Hall - Depicts in rhyming text how love can be many different things, such as eager as a beaver, steady as a yak, or silly as a seal.

The I Love You Book by Todd Parr - Celebrates the love one person has for another, whether they are dancing or strolling, on snowy days and sunny ones, no matter what.

My Love For You by Susan Roth - Two mice walk along describing love in comparison to animals from one bear to ten lovebirds.
