Summary: A meaningful book
Review: I remember being a little girl and my mother reading this book to me every night. It was always my favorite! Love you forever is a wonderful childrens book with a great story, it shows the huge amount of love a mother has for her son. While some reviewers thought it was creepy that she drove across town with a ladder to sing to her son, to a child that shows nothing more than great love and isn't creepy at all. It is a great book and in the end it shows that her son really was perceptive to how much his mother loved him. I thinks this is a wonderful book to share with your child. Sometimes even now that I am a teenager my mom comes up to me, give me a hug, and says...
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
as long as I'm living,
my baby you'll be.
This will be a book that I pass on to my children.

Summary: ~Kind of creepy~
Review: My grandson received this as a gift. He is four years old and when my daughter got to the end she felt creeped out and changed books. They are very close.....but she wasn't comfortable w/the ending......the mother driving across town w/a ladder and then the son rocking his elderly dying mother. It felt too bizarre for a four year old. There are so many wonderful, magical books out there regarding mother/child relationships.....I'd say save your money and buy a different, less disturbing book.

Summary: Spiritual Soul Food
Review: This book was placed in my hands by a tear-stained-face mother who expressed that she heard excerpts of the book at a recent funeral. She conveyed that she witnessed a child reading excerpts of the book at the funeral of his own mother stating that was his way of honoring his mother. After reading the book myself in addition to being a mother of two sons, I couldn't help having my maternal feelings penetrated by such lovely and reality-based feelings. I couldn't help thinking of my two young sons and/or children whom I am blessed to be around and read it to them! It's obvious the author is a gifted and talented storyteller. This book was obviously written with love. How wonderful that this book can stand alone on its text. This book is heart-felt, a life-changer, and has been written with clean motives. It's spiritual soul food to the essence. It's unfortunate that those who have written poor reviews of this book seem to focus their warped perceptions on the illustrations of the book or took in the words of the text the wrong way. I guess that's what happens when you don't have loving parents teach you true and unconditional love from day one. I can only thank my lucky stars that this book was brought to light in my own life so that I can pass it down to my own children because I do love my children forever even though I don't always like what they do! Happy Reading for those open-minded and blessed with a child's heart!

Summary: For anybody who's got a baby, or a mother
Review: This book is one of the top ten children's books of all time. I give this as a baby shower gift to everyone I know. I cry myself everytime I read it, and I'm not even a mom yet! Trust me, this will be mom's favorite, even if it's a little boring for kids who would rather read some of Robert Munsch's more fun fare. This pictures are good though, and the story has a sort of repetitive chorus, so younger kids may still enjoy it. A great bedtime story.

Summary: Unpleasant topic
Review: I found this book to be unbelievably unpleasant. I can't understand why anyone would want to read it to a child, unless you know you are ready to teach your child about death. When I read it to my young child I did not know that's what it was about. The cover makes it look like a cute children's story and it is cute for a little while. Overall I would say that reading this book to a child unprepared was very upsetting.

Summary: Obsessive Love?
Review: Frankly, I find this book very disturbing. A mother who drives across town with a ladder tied to her car, climbs into her adult sons bedroom and crawls across the floor to sing him a lullaby is just creepy. In reality, that behaviour in a mother would cause her to be committed and that behaviour in a boy/girlfriend would result in a restraining order. No matter how well intended, I'm bothered by teaching a child that obsessiveness is love.

Summary: Nothing endures like a mother's love
Review: Of the books on our family shelf, this is one that will never grow tiring ... and one that we will never outgrow.This is heartwarming but simple story of a mother's love for her son and how it endures, overshadowing the trials and tribulations of each stage of "boyhood." Each night, she rocks her child and sings her love to him softly - I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
My baby you'll be Though her son grows up and moves out on his own, her love for him doesn't dim and she sneaks over to his house late at night to croon to him. When he has a child of his own, he finds himself rocking his child and softly singing the same song, his mother's love flowing down through the generations. And finally, when his mother is too old to care for herself, the story comes full circle as the boy gathers his mother into his arms and rocks her gently, softly murmuring the song which so effectively expresses the love that has bound them together. A word of warning ... after all these years of reading this story, it's still not possible to get to the end without tears welling in my eyes...keep the Kleenex close by.

Summary: Love You Forever
Review: This book is about a mother's love for her son like all mothers she hates that he has to grow up. As he gets older and in his teens he is trouble but his mother still loves him. Everynight since he was a baby she sang him her very own lullaby. It is so sweet. When he becomes older and decides to have a family of his own she is so sad. One night he decides to show and return his love for her just as she has all his life. When he comes back home to his wife and baby girl he carries on this on as if it were a tradition. This book explains the love a mother has no matter what.

Summary: Love You Forever
Review: "I'll love you forever. I'll like you for always. As long as I'm living my baby you'll be". This saying is repeated on just about every page. This is a very great book for younger kids. It explains that not everything stays the same forever, yet some things still do. The story is about a baby and his mother and how the baby changes as he grows up but the mother still sings him the song no matter how old he is. The story shows the major ages of a person's life; 2, 9, a teenager, a grown man, and an older man in his mid ages. It starts out he's just a little baby. Then he is two and runs all over the house and flushes his moms watch down the toilet. He grows and he grows until he's 9 years old and he doesn't want to come in for dinner or listen to his mom. The story keeps on going until he is an older man and his mom is sick and very old. He goes over there and rocks her back and forth, back and forth and as he rocked her he sang..."I'll love you forever. I'll like you for always. As long as I'm living my baby you'll be". So I think it was a very good book for young readers.
