A. Banks is both funny and wise in her beautiful essay on discovering love as a child, Two Cents and a Question. And the poetry of love is here, toofrom Gwendolyn Brooks's classic Black Wedding Song to works by Nikki Giovanni, E. Ethelbert Miller, and Kwame Alexander. It's All Love is a dazzling, delightfully diverse exploration of the wonderful gift of love.
