Would you believe that this book is a controversial one? The author shared that the book came about because he and his wife lost two babies, and so they ended up adopting two that they named, Sam and Gilly. And… Because of their experience of losing children, and the beauty of being able to adopt and love two, they always wanted them to know how much they were loved… And… That their love would carry on forever.Thus…Love you, forever. However…Valerie Lewis, co-owner of Hicklebee’s a children’s bo...

I was introduced to this book through FRIENDS when in one episode Joey read it to little Emma on her 1st birthday. It's such a lovely little book for little humans. 😄 The best book to read to children, especially if you have a baby boy, is this one. It's a children's book that parents can read to their children and will make them cry. The parents, not the children. The love a mother has for her son grows stronger as he grows older. "I'll love you forever,I'll like you for always,As long as I'm...

I chose to read this book with what it was trying to get across and not literally. It is a weird book to take literally, which could be weird for a child reading it that takes things literally. It might scare the crap out of them. If you take the story as how irritating children are and you love them anyway, no matter what, then it is a great book.It is weird to see the mother sneak into the kids room at age 9 and rock him, and I think it is supposed to be about the love you have for them. I did...

Creepy.

Obviously enough, I'm in the minority here, but this children's book is weird, creepy, disturbing and will probably give me more nightmares than any Stephen King novel ever did."Love You Forever" is, as the title indicates, about a mother who loves her sweet little baby boy forever, until her baby has grown into an adult and she into an old woman. I'm perfectly fine with the message that mothers (respectively parents in general) will always love their children and will (in most cases - sadly eno...

You have to read this creepy little book!Licha, thank you so much for introducing this little gem to me. A-MAZING!So, I gathered 3 of my kids (ages 7, 10, & 12) around last night, and told them I wanted to get their opinion on a book. Would have loved to get the 15 year old's opinion, but he was busy sleeping off the previous night's video game marathon. You can imagine their excitement when I pulled out a baby book titled Love You Forever. The room was practically buzzing with anticipation ...

Hey parents, do you want to read a children's book that will make you cry uncontrollably from the third page all the way to the end of the book?

Well look no further, this is the book for you.

Honestly? It's a very sweet book. But get ready to do all the crying while your little kid looks up at you, with an expression that says, "Seriously dad, what the fuck? Do you need a tissue or something?"

Love you forever, Stalk you for always . . . . ***Ok, in response to the haters: let me state that I do not mind one bit that many people have been touched and uplifted and LOVE this book. It just doesn't work for me. At all. And I'm allowed to have a different opinion that you.***. . . let me say first that I understand this is an allegory about unconditional love between parent/child . . . but does this book come off a little creepy to anyone else? 1) It starts out ok . . . but about the time ...

Okay, I realize I'm in the minority here, and I will admit that the first time I read it I went, "Aww... she loves her baby." But then I actually thought about it, and was completely freaked out by this book. This woman USES A LADDER TO CLIMB INTO HER GROWN SON'S WINDOW, PICKS HIM UP OUT OF BED AND HOLDS HIM WHILE HE SLEEPS. Do I need to repeat the "grown man" part? We've got breaking-and-entering here, along with the fact that we never once see this woman tell her son she loves him while he is,...

I didn't hate this book because it was too sappy. I like sappy sometimes. Here's what I didn't like about the book.Where do I even begin? How about the cover? The cover makes it look like it's some sort of book about potty training or something. Awful choice. Secondly the illustrations are hideous. Simply hideous. Now lets talk about the writing. Repetitive and long-winded. "I'll like you for always" is just a terrible phrase.The overall general creepiness is another reason I didn't like this bo...
