ReviewsA humorous, sentimental page-turner that rarely -- let's say never -- leaves a reader with a dry eye, Robert Munsch's beloved tale is gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for her child -- forever. Nurtured by the unconditional love of his parent, a boy grows happily through the stages of childhood to become, in turn, a loving adult. This best-selling classic of a parent's enduring love is available in a gift edition: slipcased with a laminated box and a clothbound book., #5 on Instructor's "Teachers Pick the Top 50 Kids Books Ever", chosen by 200 teachers, authors, and children's literature experts. Robert Munsch's beloved tale is gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for her child -- forever. Nurtured by the unconditional love of his parent, a boy grows happily through the stages of childhood to become, in turn, a loving adult. This book is beyond emotional. I dare any mother out there, or any child with an aging parent, to read this story and not have a lump in your throat... Should definitely be apart of your child's book collection., There is a powerful, age-old resonance to the story, centered on that intangible, steadfast bond between mother and child, There is a powerful, age-old resonance to the story, centered on that intangible, steadfast bond between mother and child., #5 on Instructor's "Teachers Pick the Top 50 Kids Books Ever", chosen by 200 teachers, authors, and children's literature experts, One of my all-time favorites. I cry every time I read it.... [The book] is a beautiful script about parenthood, a poignant parable about life and death, a testimony to when the roles of child and parent become blurry. The story reminds you that no matter how grown up you are, you're always someone's child; that no matter how "adult" you are, you're never too old to be loved by your parents. It makes me appreciate even more how my mother still calls me and my brother (despite us being 32- and 22-years-old, respectively) by our childhood nicknames, Pussycat and Tchotchke (Yiddish for "knickknack"). Pigeonholing this as a children's book is like saying "Romeo & Juliet" is merely a cautionary tale about drug abuse. I dare anyone to read this story and not shed at least one tear by the end. It's even more poignant when you learn that Munsch wrote the book as a memorial to two still-born children he and his wife had in 1979 and 1980., This best-selling classic of a parent's enduring love is available in a gift edition: slipcased with a laminated box and a clothbound book, There are certain books about a parent's unconditional love for a child that are timeless--and this is one of them, Robert Munsch's beloved tale is gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for her child -- forever., There are certain books about a parent's unconditional love for a child that are timeless--and this is one of them., This book is beyond emotional.

As a retired teacher, I used to read this book to my 2nd grade class. However, I couldn't find this book amongst my other books in my office bookcase, so that's why I ordered this book! However, I thought I was getting a brand new book, but instead it's a used one. On the inside of the cover page, someone has written their name and then scribbled it out with a pen. I put a sticker over the scribbled name so my granddaughters would think this is a new book!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Love You Forever--children's book
I sent this to my niece as a baby shower gift. I hope it arrived at her address as she could not carry her baby shower gifts on the airplane. I haven't heard anything but the baby is due soon! So, they're probably busy getting the nursery together and Dr. appts. more frequent as the baby gets closer to making her entrance into this world. I hope she likes it as. much as my son did. He still remembers it to this day! So much so, he got me a copy of it for me all these years later. I know what I'll get him if he ever has a child.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

The book is great! Shipping?
I love this book so much it's my favorite! I read this to my children 31 & 27 years ago. Now, I bought it for my first grandchild. The shipping was very fast. But, the paperback was sent in a Manila bubble wrap which is ok I guess?? But, it still got bent... made me sad.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

FOR THOSE WHO LOVE THEIR KIDS
I bought this book in 1991 when my son first became a father . . . I gave it to him with a personal note about my love for him. I also purchased another for my daughter with a personal inscription. And now, this book, I ordered for my sister in law who I knew would love the book as well.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Best book for parents to read to young children.
This is the story of a mother and her son. It starts when the boy is a baby. It ends when he is a grown man with a family of his own. Love you forever is the poem the mother received every night to her son. The book ends with the man holding his mother in his arms and reciting the poem to her. I bought this book for each of my children and grandchildren. I buy copies for friends when they have children.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
