Favorite Book to Read to Baby-To-Be

My husband and I have been reading this book to our baby-to-be since the first week of my pregnancy (we are now at 26 weeks). Of all the books we've read, this is definitely our favorite. It's the perfect way to end our day (we're hoping our little baby boy feels the same way). Check out barewalls.com for 3 different posters based on illustrations from the book! I just ordered a couple to hang in the nursery.

Wonderful book for all ages

This is one of the sweetest children's books I have everread. It brings back warm, carefree, childhood memories. My 18-month old loves to hear it at bedtime and giggles everytime.... The illustrations are just beautiful. I'm thinking about decorating the walls in my daughter's new room with some of the drawings from the book, but I'll definitely need to call on some artist friends for help. END

heart warming

My one year old absolutely loves this book. It is one of the sweetest and most enjoyable stories I have read. The words just put you in a loving mood. I have read this so many times that I have memorized it. I have tried hiding the book, but she always manages to find it and crawls into my lap to hear it one more time. It is truly "a great bedtime story". I have decide to get another one so when she grows up, she can share it with her children.

Charming!

My mother-in-law gave this book to my son for Valentine's Day, and it is a delight! The watercolor illustrations are just terrific, and the bears who star in the story are so sweet and snuggly-looking, you'll (almost) wish for a product tie-in -- that's saying a lot! Even better, the prose describes the different ways we can show each other love. One of the lines from the book (``Love is when somebody quietly listens to everything you've got to say.'') has served as a gentle reminder to me to be more patient with my son's constant chatter. I can't think of a more loving way to say goodnight to a child than reading this special book out loud.

Great bed-time story!

I just love this book! I read this book almost daily to my daughter. We just love the sing-songy rhyme about love. It is a great bed-time story, giving children happy thoughts to go to bed with. Wonderful!
