Summary: Love You Forever
Review: Love You Forever is a pretty good book. You can understand it quite well, because it is is just telling how a boy grew up and something bad happens along the lines. This book has lots of feelings on how a family member's loss is affected. The mother always looks out, going to a room and sings to him. I recommend this book to parents that have a newborn or is getting one. I would compare this book to something good and this is better than that book. That is my review and I hope you like it.
Thank You!

Summary: Love you forever
Review: Love you foreveris an awesome book. It talks about a mother who watchs her son grow up and move out. It has a life long journey of how a mother sees her son become a man and have his own family. It has an enjoyment for the whole family. I liked this book because it is a funny story but has a morale too. I would recommend this book to parents who have newborn children. If you compare this story to another childrens book, it would get the best rated. This book brings a warm felling to all who read it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A book about love, plain and simple
Review: A great book as a gift for your Mom. She'll cry her eyes out, the good kind of cry.

Oh, and for all of the nutcases saying this is a book that "promotes codependancy" or is about incest: get a life. To quote Sigmund Freud himself, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." This is a book for kids that has levels that appeal to adults too. Enjoy it, and tell Mom you love her.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Lesson So Simple, Adults Should Learn It
Review: A friend of mine gave this book to me while I was my mother's caregiver shortly before she passed away. It became, in a sense, my biography. I was a six-year-old boy tucking his mommy into bed.

A delightful read for anyone, not just the recommended 4 to 8 age group, this book has many layers to it that will appeal to all age groups. Although one reviewer here wrote that the book promotes codependency, I disagree. It merely illustrates the connection between mother and son. Certainly the boy tries his mother's patience, as all children surely do, but she loves him despite his impertinence, and the book's simple statement is that a mother's love for her child never stops. That the boy, now grown, returns to his mother on her deathbed, holds her and sings to her the song she sang to him as a youth is a tribute to her parenting. What greater comfort than for a mother to hear "love you forever".

Heraclitus wrote, "All things flow, nothing abides." But life is a circle, and I now bear she who once bore me. So long as I live, so will my mother. This book remains on my bookshelf, and I pull it out every so often to read it, and it still brings tears to my eyes.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Book is a codependence nightmare
Review: Given to me as a gift, I heard many glowing reviews of this book and was told it would leave me weeping. Not only was I dry-eyed at the end, but this book left a bad taste in my mouth. A mothers love? Not quite...more like a mother-son example of co-dependence. The son comes across as a spoiled little brat that the mom "loves anyway." She rocks him to sleep even as he becomes an adult...very healthy. No matter what the author intended, this book is only a lesson in bad parenting. It makes me nervous that so many people liked this book so much.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: every mother should read it.
Review: This book really shows a mothers love in a way children can understand. It may seem silly for her to climb into a grown mans bedroom but to mothers everywhere it symbolizes never ending love. We don't stop loving our children when they get to a certain age, though some teens wish we would. It is a unbroken bond, an eternal bond. Even death can not break it. Ask any mother who has lost a child. The story is simple enough for young children to enjoy. It is good for older kids too. When I have trouble dealing with my 12 yr. old, I give it to him to read. It reminds him that even though we disagree, I will love him for ever and I'll love for always and as long as I'm living my baby he will be...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I guess I'm just a big sap, but......
Review: I frequently cry when I am reading this book to my kids. My 6 year old son always asks me to read this book to him. I gave a copy to my Mom and I like to buy them to include in baby shower gifts for new mom's. It has a beautiful message about motherhood that is timeless. I love this book. It is a little silly, but a great book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Celebration of a Mother's Love
Review: This book has been on my son's bookshelf since he was just about 3 years old and I do hope that he holds on to it and that he remembers the many times we read it together. I remember him telling me that he thought it was a safe feeling to think that your mother would always love you that way, no matter how old you got or no matter how old she got. It's a beautiful book that I like to give as a baby shower gift. I know that I will always remember the times we shared that book together at bedtime and how it was then, and continues to be a wonderful celebration of a mother's love for her children.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of those timeless reads...
Review: This book is amazing. I first discovered it when I was about five, and really enjoyed it. Recently, after many years, I unearthed it to read to a one year old I know. The child's mother read it, and cried every time! In my opinion, it is a beautiful story that every person should read at least once in their childhood or even in their lifetime.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A Dark Tale of Co-dependency and Incest
Review: This book is full of dark symbolism. It is about a mother who sneaks into her little boys room to watch him go through puberty while he sleeps. She sometimes picks him up and sings to him. When he is an adult, we see that he sleeps in a single bed, meaning he never got married. Soon afterwards mom comes and pays a late night visit...she uses a ladder to crawl into his room. Shortly thereafter you see the son with a baby, but no wife, yep mother and son have produced an offspring????
Later, after mother ages quite a bit, we see a strange picture where the son is cradling her next to his breast singing that sinister lullaby.
Very campy stuff!!!
