Customer Reviews

Gentle and loving story of a parent's love for their child

I first found this book when my daughter was only a couple months old, but I knew instantly it was a keeper. This book brings tears to my eyes every time I read it; it is so simple, and yet so very sweet. I have to also add that as a single mother, the book has an additional meaning for us, and so exquisitely speaks to the extra-close bond which often exists in these situations.

DC Mom

This is a lovely book, I bought it for my two year old daughter while she was away visiting her grandparents for the week. The book brought tears to my eyes. I am a single mother, and consider my daughter and I a team to be together forever no matter what happens in life. There are so few books like this one out in the market (and I have been looking)...

A new family favorite!

This is one of those books that within a few pages you know this is going to be a book your family treasures. One that will be BOTH yours and your child's favorite book! NO ONE GETS TIRED OF HEARING HOW LOVED THEY ARE AND THAT IT'S NOT THE "THINGS" WE HAVE IN OUR LIVES BUT OUR LOVED ONES THAT MAKE LIFE WORTH LIVING AND SO VERY SPECIAL! The illustrations are the same as on the dust jacket and the white mama duck and her little duckling stand out among the redish pink background. This book is perfect to give "just because", as Valentine's gift or baby shower.
