Guess How Much I Love You Review

The Artwork of Guess How Much I Love You
Being an artist myself, I'm always attracted to the illustrations.  The colors are soft,yet rich, and fittingly "earthy", since the plot takes place in a forest.  The two hare characters are loveable and realistic, with a cartooney touch and some very non-hare-like body language.  I can only wish to be so skilled with watercolors.

The Story
By the title of the book, you can already guess what it is about.  This story takes a wonderful spin on the phrase, "I love you this much!"
What's fun about this story is how the father and son hares compete on how much one loves the other.  The little hare meets tough competition when his father always out-measures his love for him.  In the end, you really think the little guy has fiinally won this fun-loving game, until his father out-measures him one last time - but the way he does it, gives you such a warm feeling in your heart.  You just want to hug and kiss your child at the end of this story.  I know I do!

Bedtime With Guess How Much I Love You
This is the perfect father and child read, but I enjoy reading it to my girls as well.  It's a sweet and touching love story that's perfect for cuddling to at bedtime.  It puts the entire family into a happy and peaceable frame of mind.  It's the kind of story that can be lovingly read in soft tones to get your children in their bedtime mood.

Guess How Much They Love This Book
Our 3-year-old loves this book.  She has even quoted some of it to me and her Daddy, telling us how much she loves us.  Our 1-year-old is beginning to sit and listen better to stories and looking at the pictures with interest.  I know she likes this book because she is at the age where she loves to look at pictures of animals.

I definitely recommend that you add this book to the bookshelf of the child you love.  I think this book would also make the perfect gift from a child to their Daddy or vice versa.
