Love You Forever

Booksellers have sold more than 36 million copies of Love You Forever in paperback and hardcover.

Now we have a board version, printed on light, crisp whiteboard and slightly reduced for child-sized hands.

Yet it contains every word of the original, which is much-loved by grandparents and parents everywhere.

A young mother holds her baby, and while she sings to it she rocks it back and forth.

And through her life, and the stages of his life, she holds her son and rocks him back and forth as she tells him that she will love him forever.

Editorial Reviews

The touching story looks at the endless love a mother has for her son as he grows from a baby into a man and how the man returns the love to his mother as well as his new baby daughter. Parents and grandparents will relate to this story and will enjoy reading it to their children and grandchildren.-- "Hamilton Spectator" (11/1/2018 12:00:00 AM)

This is a very sentimental book in our family. I have four children and read this to all of them. They would all sit quietly and listen except for this one part in the book we’d say together: “I’ll love you forever” “I’ll like you for always “ “As long as I’m living” “My baby you’ll be” Now my daughter is going to have a baby in about one month and I gave her this book with a written note inside. She cried when I gave it to her and automatically said that saying we used to say from the the book. She can’t wait to read it to her baby up until he gets to old to want to read with his Mom and Dad anymore. I would highly recommend this book for babies and young children.

I have used this book in the classroom and read it to my children, grandchildren and now my great grandchildren. I absolutely love the story and the message it behind the tale. It is a book all of my family know and it’s one that we all can repeat as it has repetition to it so you remember the important message! Buy this book! Worth the small price you pay!!!

My son is 18 now and I still have this book that I was given at my baby shower. It is one of our favorites and has a permanent place in my home "library". Writing this now makes me tear up because he is soon to graduate High School. I now include it in my set of books when gifting at baby showers and toddler birthday parties. Include a little note that can also be read over the years.

I started reading this book to my son after he was born. I could not get to the end of the book when I would cry. My son when he started walking he would get the book and hand it to me to read to him. The little stinker wanted me to see me cry. It must be a good thing since he must have felt very secure to be able to see his momma cry. It is a very sweet book. My son is now 34 years-old. I cry today reading the book as much as I did back when my son was a toddler.

I used to read this to all three of my children as babies. Well my daughter just gave birth to my first grandchild and I had to gift this book to her. I told her I read it to her as a child and she was so happy to get it!! This is a must have for your child, grandchild, niece, nephew, or any baby/child. The book shows the love of a mother to her child and then the love being given back to the mother as she ages. It’s a must have!!
