Summary: It makes you cry so much, onions are jealous
Review: This is an amazing book. I cannot get through it without bawling like a baby.

I have a 4 year old daughter and a 2 year old son. My daughter and now my son for that matter do not like being called a baby any more. I just tell them that no matter how big they get that they will always be my babies. They don't yet understand that the emphasis is on the word "my" not "babies".

This book depicts a parent who understands her role in life: Pour your love into your child at whatever stage of life they are in.

I really love Sheila McGraws's illustration. They add poignancy to Robert Munch's saga.

I disagree with putting the toilet picture on the cover, though. The book is not really about the antics of the child it is about the love of the mother. If I were the decision maker (which of course I am not), I would put the picture of the mom crawling into her 2 year olds room on the cover. That picture captures the essence of the book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of my favorites
Review: My whole family loves this book. I thought it was sort of odd at first, but once you've read it with a child a couple of times you'll be hooked.

It's a simple book, but the theme of "I'm your parent, and I'm with you through it all" is well done, and can be very comforting when you read it to your child. The illustrations aren't intended to be overly humorous (I think), but my son and I laugh every time we see the little old lady rocking the full-grown son.

We used this book extensively with our oldest child after the second child was born. It can be a great aid in getting over the rough spots (jealousy, competition, sibling rivalry etc) and reinforcing your bond with your first-born.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is a treasure!
Review: I began reading this book to my son when he was 2 years old. He is now that teenager and yes, sometimes I feel like I am the zoo keeper in the zoo! The words ..."love you forever, like you for always..." are still used today. Many many times, I have signed cards to him ..."Love you Forever, like you for always..." The well used book with its worn out pages is a treaure and still sits on a shelf in his room.

Summary: Every Parent Should Have This Book
Review: This is a great story about the love a family has for each other. I read it to my class of first graders at least six times during the school year.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very moving
Review: This book went right to my heart, and is a very innocent story. I was amazed to read some of these reviews.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the bestest
Review: Love you forever is one of the most special children books that I have read.
I remember hearing it when I was a youngster and telling myself that if I had a little boy that I would read it to him.

Now as a new parent to a little dark haired boy I feel that it is a special book for him and I to share. He loves the colorful pictures, and the special ending and the message it shares with youngsters.

This is truly a masterpiece!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ewwww.....
Review: We received it as a gift for my 2 year olds birthday. I read it, formed my opinion so I asked a few friends for their opinions and they also belived it was a sick book. There are way too many good books out there that cover unconditional love that this one went in my garbage can.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love You Forever is a Great Book. 10 Stars!
Review: I read this book so many times to my children when they were small, they loved it each time, as it showed them the stages of life in a poignant and beautiful manner. I never cried from this book, and neither did my children, although I did get choked up, with moist eyes. It also brought about more of a loving bond, that shows the circle of life, and how important unconditional love is between a parent and child.
I highly recommend reading this book to a your child. It will show how much love there is, and how it endures "forever."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Oh the unbridled cynicism
Review: I have to wonder how the detractors of this book can turn such a sweet, simple story of a mother's unconditional love into something so [misinterpreting]. Perhaps they were never loved the way the son and baby in this book are.

I've been reading this book to my kids since they were babies and even now at the ages of eight and six they still choose it occasionally. My daughter is especially fond of it. They have not been "psychologically scarred" by the story, as some reviewers have suggested would happen. Instead my children see the story for exactly what it is: a beautiful portrayal of parental love passed down from generation to generation.

I recommend this book to all parents and children who are able to feel love.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Book
Review: This is a good book but the ending- you had better get a box of tissues- this is about the real "Circle of life" and how we take care of our children, and then how our children take "care" of us.

Very moving and emotional.
