My aunt and uncle gifted us with this book when my first child was just a baby. I read it to him and his little brother many times over the years., It’s a sweet repetitive rhythmic story reminding a child of his mother’s love enduring all things throughout the years. ” I’ll love you forever. I’ll like you for always. As long as I’m living, my baby you’ll be.”, Even without re-reading the entire book, the stanza is perfect for rocking and hugging and calming and soothing a child of any age but it does tug at a mama’s heartstrings. It eventually became known as “that book that makes mommy cry.”, Thirty-five years after I first read this book I ordered a new copy for my first granddaughter’s nursery. I’ll try to read it to her without the tears — or maybe I’ll just let her daddy read it to her instead. His eyes might leak a little bit too.

I bought this book to read to my kids because I heard it was so good, and I was warned saying they couldn’t get through it without crying.. They weren’t wrong! Was so good I had to buy again, but this time in a hardback because my cat knocked a glass of water on the first one in paperback the day I got it and I didn’t want to go without it!

I gifted this to a parent with a son in his 30’s. She said it helped her reflect on what life is all about and was “the nicest gift anyone had ever given her”. I LOVE this book and have warn out a couple over the years myself. I still get emotional each time I read it. It is a wonderful book!

My mom read this to me when I was young and I still write in every card to her “I love you forever, I love you for always, as long as I’m living my mommy you’ll be” it really stuck with me and helped us create that lifelong bond. So now that I’m older having kids it was very important for me to obtain this very special book to create new memories!
