Purchase Recommendation:
Borrow. This is a sweet poem, but it is still like many other "I Love You" books. This would make a nice gift book for a mom-to-be or new mom.

Little Kid Reaction
Our child thought that flipping the book was cool. S/he could relate to many of the contrasts and superlatives.

Big Kid Reaction
This is a sweet poem. It falls in the same category as Guess How Much I Love You? We like how it distinguishes itself by letting the child draw on some of his favorite things to describe his love. It's nice that child can "go first" reading, just by flipping the book.
