Robert Munsch's beloved tale is gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for her child forever. Nurtured by the unconditional love of his parent, a boy grows happily through the stages of childhood to become, in turn, a loving adult.
This book is beyond emotional. I dare any mother out there, or any child with an aging parent, to read this story and not have a lump in your throat... Should definitely be apart of your child's book collection.
Sentimental story that has long been a favorite gift at baby showers.

The best of Munsch's many storybooks... it'll give you a new song to sing... and maybe a bit of perspective down the road.

There is a powerful, age-old resonance to the story, centered on that intangible, steadfast bond between mother and child.

My children and I enjoyed it, night after night, for years... It is a charmer. The simple story touches the heart.
Louisville Courier-Journal - Jeith L. Runyon
One of my all-time favorites. I cry every time I read it.... [The book] is a beautiful script about parenthood, a poignant parable about life and death, a testimony to when the roles of child and parent become blurry. The story reminds you that no matter how grown up you are, you're always someone's child; that no matter how "adult" you are, you're never too old to be loved by your parents. It makes me appreciate even more how my mother still calls me and my brother (despite us being 32- and 22-years-old, respectively) by our childhood nicknames, Pussycat and Tchotchke (Yiddish for "knickknack"). Pigeonholing this as a children's book is like saying "Romeo & Juliet" is merely a cautionary tale about drug abuse. I dare anyone to read this story and not shed at least one tear by the end. It's even more poignant when you learn that Munsch wrote the book as a memorial to two still-born children he and his wife had in 1979 and 1980.

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.
