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.”….. So begins the endearing introduction of the children’s book, Love You Forever.
Written by Robert Munsch, and beautifully illustrated by Sheila McGraw, Love You Forever is a heartwarming story about the love a mother has for her son. This charming, easy to read children’s book, takes the reader on a realistic journey through the stages of a young child’s growth and development from infancy to adulthood. From a precocious two year old, to a devilish nine year old, to a rowdy teenager, the mother consistently expresses her love every single night, when she picks up her sleeping son and rocks him back and forth while singing the opening lullaby.
As the child grew, the mother’s love grew. No amount of distance and no amount of difficulties stifled it. Instead, it increased over time. So ingrained and enduring was this love, that it survived old age, sickness, and the birth of a new generation. The perfect book for readers of all ages, Love You Forever is a true testament of the unbreakable bonds and unconditional love felt between mother and child. Whether it’s a love between mother and son, mother and daughter, father and son, or father and daughter, this beautiful book is a grand example of how true maternal love stands the test of time.
A story full of warmth and compassion, Love You Forever is the perfect addition to any child’s library.
