We each share promises with the ones we love. This is a book of beautifully written promises parents can share with their children. By reading them aloud, you will provide an environment of unconditional love. "I promise that I'll love you, whatever may befall." Each promise is one sentence on a beautifully illustrated double spread. Michael Frith is a well known portrait artist in England. This is his first illustrated book for children. Elizabeth Laird has written many books for children and you might enjoy: Secret Friends or Kiss the Dust. The simple powerful words will help you share the importance of commitment, caring and love with your child. ~The Rebecca Review
