This review is part of the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Write-Off I would like to thank MaryTara for inviting me to join, and would encourage everyone to read the great Bedtime Story Reviews that have been written by some of the best...

Pros: Repetitive, Deals With Real Issues
Cons: -Some might say- Illustrations, Mother climbing through window

This book has become a favorite among many and my family is of no exception. I remember reading the book before I had children... Even then, it touched my heart. I forgot about this book until the first death of a family member occurred after my eldest...

Pros: starts and ends beautifully
Cons: in the middle, the whole thing gets weird

In the teacher's lounge of the school where I taught yesterday was a shelf of books for sale. Among these was one I had never seen called Love You Forever. With time to spare before I had to start teaching, I began to read it. What started out as...

Pros: wonderful illustrations; starts out with a sweet tale of parent-child relationships
Cons: unhealthy story of mother-son relationships; creepy story

The book Love You Forever was written by Robert Munsch with illustrations done by Sheila McGraw. The book was first published in 1986 and distributed by Firefly Books.

This review is based on the hardback version. The book measures...

Pros: Sweet story of parental love, and the inevitability of growing older.
Cons: I cannot read it without crying. I never actually completely read it to my children.

Love You Forever, written by Robert Munsch, and Illustrated by Sheila McGraw is the most wonderful children’s book that I have never read, in its entirety, to my young boys. It is a touching, honest look at the circle of life, a glimpse at the ...

Pros: An emotional story regarding the strong bond of love between mother and child.
Cons: Sadly, some people put a sick twist to the tale.

I purchased this book for my then six-year-old son who was going off to first grade. He was not happy to be leaving his home and his mommy all day. This book deals with the very strong bond of love between mother and child. Our middle son loves this...

Pros: Beautiful touching story of a mother's love for her son
Cons: Some people find such fictional (and exaggerated) displays of affection strange...

Are you a parent? Do you remember holding that newborn baby in your arms in those first few minutes, and knowing that you could never love another creature more than you love this tiny, helpless infant at this moment? Do you remember thinking "I'll ...

Pros: Great story, deep meaning.
Cons: Makes the adult cry!

This has to be one of my all time favorite children’s books even though I think it has more of an impact on adults than on children. It shows the unconditional love a parent has for his/her child and shows how sometimes a person might not think the ...

Pros: Very sentimental!
Cons: Makes me cry!

After reading many positive reviews about the children's book Love You Forever, I had to get it. My oldest son, Zachary, is just beginning to read well, and I thought this would be a good 'mushy' book for me to read to him. A nice break from...

Pros: Reflects on the bond between parent and child, and the cycle of life.
Cons: One part is a little weird.

I recently had to do some work in my attic that required moving some boxes. In one of them, I found some old children’s books. I started looking through them and ran across one that was a favorite of both my daughters when they were little. It ...

Pros: Delightful book about unconditional love.
Cons: None.

With regard to children, I am unable to recollect any Father or Mother that hasn’t declared “I Will Love You Forever!” Unconditional love manifests and takes hold of the parental heart in a profound manner! Although children error (as do...

Pros: Wonderful story of Unconditional Love
Cons: Need a box of Kleenex!

My Mom & Dad bought my Sister & I each a hardcover copy of "Love You Forever" by Robert N. Munsch for Mothers Day this year.

She bought us the books after reading a story in our hometown newspaper-The Detroit News. There was a story written...

Pros: Family togetherness, unconditional love
Cons: Might be hard for a orphan or child with a non caring family to hear/see

Love you forever, is one of the most eye catching, endearing books for children that I have read. When I first picked this up, I was an elementary education major, taking a childrens literature class, and was to be honest, unthrilled to be searching out...

Pros: Tender, funny, and moving
Cons: None

I've been reading many reviews of this book while a tiny voice has been whispering in my ear, "You seem to know this book yet you haven't read it...What gives?" Tonight, I finally clicked over to the manufacturer's page and when I...

Pros: Beautiful story of unconditional love
Cons: the tears and lump in my throat when reading it out loud

A few years back a woman I worked with bought an edition of Love You Forever for her grown son's birthday. She brought it to work and showed the other ladies in our office. I watched as a bunch of women blubbered over this children's book. I...
