I Love You Through And Through (Board book)

~ (Author), Caroline Jay Church (Illustrator)

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreS–This is a sweet book, good for a lap-time cuddle. It reads as an affirmation that the child will be loved, from top to bottom, when happy or sad. The text also introduces opposites as in "I love you.../silent/and talking." There's no real story here, simply comfort in the rhythm and rhyme of the words as they build to the satisfying conclusion: "I love you/through and through…/yesterday, today,/and tomorrow, too." The book is printed on stiff pages, good for toddlers to flip through or to withstand a baby's drool. Dynamic illustrations feature the child and his sidekick teddy bear. As a team they act out the text in ways that are informative, inventive, and humorous. The colored pages are subtly patterned, providing a decorative yet unobtrusive backdrop to the simple and focused drawings. Basic, low-key, eye-catching, and smooth.–Martha Topol, Traverse Area District Library, Traverse City, MI

By	Tim Janson (Michigan) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

Not sure why [...] has this one listed in the 4 - 8 years old category as this one is clearly aimed at pre-schoolers and toddlers. It's just a beautifully written and illustrated book. A toddlers love from head to toe, teddy bear in hand. The illustrations magically capture the expression of this little boy. A loving book! And a great gift idea for kids or grandparents with Valentine's Day right around the corner. A sure to be classic!

Adorable
This book is absolutely adorable for toddlers and preschoolers, though my seven year old came across it on my desk and thoroughly enjoyed reading it too! It is straight forward and a great feel good book, reinforcing to kids that their parents love all of them, no matter what!
