Cedella says, "When my father sang 'One Love,' he felt it all the way—heart and soul, mind and body. He thought a world united by love was possible, and it is. All we've got to do, he said, is 'Give a little, take a little.' " One Love animates this sentiment and passes on an important message about the strength of love and community. Perfect for families everywhere, this charming story is a colorful and upbeat testament to the amazing things that can happen when we all get together with one love in our hearts.
