The Love Almanac

(Hardcover, 240 pages, 2003, $10.00)

Welcome to the ultimate source of entertainment, information and inspiration on matters of the heart. Full of romance and whimsy, this jam-packed volume is divided into 5 themed chapters.

Each chapter is brimming with a combination of poetry, literary excerpts, letters, history, trivia, advice, top ten lists, humor, games, crafts, activities, songs, resources and recipes.

My favorite excerpt is Professor Cupid’s fun facts (click to enlarge):

Filled with more than 200 charming vintage illustrations and postcard art, this delightful book is a beautiful celebration of romance, passion and friendship. With pages edged in silver, this is the perfect gift for a sweetheart, spouse or a friend still looking for love.

English teacher Caterina Anna lists Love Almanac among her Top 100 books. Canadian blogger “Silverlotus” calls Love Almanac a “cute book…full of poems, recipes and stories about love.”
