WARM AND REASSURING

A warm, reassuring story related in lilting rhyme I LOVE YOU MORE is the answer to a small boy's question, "Mommy, just how much do you love me?" Her replies are in verse form with simple, everyday objects representing the depth and breadth of her love. For instance, "I love you higher than the highest bird ever flew. I love you taller than the tallest tree ever grew." The book is flip-sided so it may be read from front to back or back to front, thus the book never ends just as a mother's love never does. Illustrations by Karen Kessler are full-page, bright in primary colors. This is a story so appealing that even when youngsters know it by heart they'll want to hear it again and again. It's a lovely way for mothers to remind young ones of how very much they care. - Gail Cooke

Sweet Book!

This is a sweet book about a mother and child comparing how much they love each other. The illustrations are bright and attractive to children and the book is done in a 'flip book' format where one side is read one way and you turn it around to read the other side. [One side being the mother's story and one being the child's]. My 5 year old and her Grandmother adore this book and read it over and over!

Heart Wrenching

This book is amazing. I am pregnant and read this book to my child in utero. I think it will be a treasured book for my children and me for many years to come. The first time I read this book I was in a very small store. I had just discovered I was pregnant and couldn't stop crying at it's heartwarming message. A must for any child!

Wonderful children's book

What a wonderful story about the special relationship between a mother and her son. Laura Duksta, the author, came to speak at my school (for the teachers) and told us the inspirational story of her life. What a woman! When she read her book to us, it was such a heartwarming story that there was barely a dry eye in the room. I recommend this to everyone, but ESPECIALLY moms with sons!!

Heartwarming- A Must Have Book

I LOVE this book! As a mom and a teacher, this book grabbed me as soon as I read it. The rhyming text and colorful illustrations appeal to all while the message is so heartwarming and simple that anyone who reads it will understand. The specialness of the flip-sided book adds to the excitement of wanting more and feeling fulfulled when it is finished. I can't wait to read it in my classroom and have my students, make their own "I Love Your More Books". What a great gift idea!
