Like an extended valentine, I Like You, I Love You is an illustrated ode to the feelings of seeking, finding, and falling in love.
Knowing drawings by artist Carissa Potter pop off each page in striking neon and metallic inks, illustrating all the moments between meeting that special someone ("I like you"), falling for them ("I like-like you"), and finding the comfort of devotion ("I love you").
