Customer Reviews

a winner

I gave this book to my dad to let him know he was going to be a grandpa for the first time. Although my baby is not born yet, I can't wait for him to be able to read it to him/her. It is well written and colorful. When they are able to understand the concept, it will explain to the child how much they were loved before they ever entered the world.

for every grandpa-to-be

Even on the inside covers of I ALREADY KNOW I LOVE YOU, Billy Crystal tells of his delights as he awaits his grandchild's birth: "I'm waiting to see you in ballet shoes, or is it football pads?..."Rebeccasreads highly recommends I ALREADY KNOW I LOVE YOU, with its charming images by Elizabeth Sayles, as a perfect book for Grandpas-to-be. It is filled with fun & hugs & ways to welcome your grandchild, of either gender, into your family & the world.

I love this book!

I am giving this book to my father and my father in law (a gift on the arrival of my new baby for her wonderful papaws); this book is so sweet and what a tear jerker. Who new Billy Crystal isn't only funny, he is a great writer.

must buy for future grandfathers

We gave this book to my father-in-law for his birthday and used it as a way to tell him and the family we were expecting. It brought tears to everyone's eyes. Everyone who read the book loved it. The sentiments are perfect for the anticipation of a little one.

Billy's heart is wide open.

Billy's heart is wide open. Like every good first time grandpa, he eagerly anticipates his grandchild and imagines all the things they will do together. "On the inside cover Billy writes, "I can't believe I'm writing this 'cause I don't know who you are." However, the title says it all, "I already know I love you." Crystal has written a really enjoyable, touching, and sentimental story. The illustrations are soft and dreamy. This storybook is a keeper.
