5.0 out of 5 stars Very sweet book about love, September 11, 2009

This review is from: Guess How Much I Love You (Hardcover)

I think this book is so sweet about how much a father loves his son. I am amazed at the two one-star reviews, I mean, how cynical can you get? So what if the father declares a greater love for his son (the bunny is sleeping at the time, if that makes you feel better)? It is actual very natural. As for the author's use of "sophisticated words", what word gave you trouble, thornbush or nutbrown?

I absolutely love this book! I received it as a gift five years ago when my son was born. I cried the first time I read it and five years later I still get emotional about it. My son loves it as well and will randomly come up to me and tell me that he loves me all the way to the moon. Then we follow the book's storyline and usually end with loving each other all the way to Pluto and back.

This purchase was a gift for a friend and I'm sure she'll love it too!

I can barely get through the whole book without getting choked up. AND, when I read the book to my kids at bedtime, it never fails to lull them to sleep.

Every parent should own this book!
