Mother & Child and Endearing Love

First off, I absolutely loved the concept of having a story written in both English and Spanish and commend the authors on such an undertaking. EVEN MORE is a beautiful tribute to the unconditional love of mothers and children everywhere and focuses on growing up. Starting with the birth of a child, we then follow each of the various stages of growth with the mother sharing her love for her child and the child in turn sharing their thoughts about their mother in cute little "I love you more" phrases.Matched with the declarations of love are sketchings, drawings, and images depicting the child's growth to coincide with the words of the story. There are even pictures that appear to have been drawn by a child. Though I loved the book in its entirety, my favorite part comes at the end where the daughter has had her own child and is repeating the cycle of "I love you more." Beautiful, colorful, and spotlighting endearing love, this story touched my heart and made me think of my deceased mother as well as my own daughter who I too love...even more.Reviewed by (...)

Share a special bond with your daughter

"Even More" celebrates the special relationship between a mother and a daughter. Author Liz McGrath takes the reader on a trip along the cycle of life from the birth of a child to the birth of a grandchild. Along the way the mother finds ways to express how much she loves her daughter and the daughter also expresses her love for her mother. This is a wonderful book to show the young reader the strong bonds of love that exist (or at least should exist) between a daughter and a mother. This is a very well done bilingual book written in English and Spanish for children about four to eight years old. Sure to help the young reader understand how important they are to their parents, "Even More" is a highly recommended children's book.

Makes a great present! Happy Mother's Day!

This book is a gem to give as a new baby present as it is beautifully illustrated and reads as well the first time you read it to your first child as when she reads it to the next sibling!

the illustrations are very moving....

This is a beautiful and tender book that captures the deep love a mother/parent feels for their child. The illustrations evoked many wonderful memories of early parenthood and also of my own mother. The writer and illustrator of this book clearly are speaking from the heart! This is one to share with all parents-young and old for years to come.
