A humorous, sentimental page-turner that rarely -- let's say never -- leaves a reader with a dry eye, Robert Munsch's beloved tale is gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for her child -- forever. Nurtured by the unconditional love of his parent, a boy grows happily through the stages of childhood to become, in turn, a loving adult. This best-selling classic of a parent's enduring love is available in a gift edition: slipcased with a laminated box and a clothbound book., #5 on Instructor's "Teachers Pick the Top 50 Kids Books Ever", chosen by 200 teachers, authors, and children's literature experts. Robert Munsch's beloved tale is gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for her child -- forever. Nurtured by the unconditional love of his parent, a boy grows happily through the stages of childhood to become, in turn, a loving adult. This book is beyond emotional. I dare any mother out there, or any child with an aging parent, to read this story and not have a lump in your throat... Should definitely be apart of your child's book collection., An extraordinarily different story by Robert Munsch is a gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for their child -- forever Sheila McGraw's soft and colorful pastels perfectly complement the sentiment of the book -- one that will be read repeatedly for years, There is a powerful, age-old resonance to the story, centered on that intangible, steadfast bond between mother and child, There is a powerful, age-old resonance to the story, centered on that intangible, steadfast bond between mother and child., One of my all-time favorites. I cry every time I read it.... [The book] is a beautiful script about parenthood, a poignant parable about life and death, a testimony to when the roles of child and parent become blurry. The story reminds you that no matter how grown up you are, you're always someone's child; that no matter how "adult" you are, you're never too old to be loved by your parents. It makes me appreciate even more how my mother still calls me and my brother (despite us being 32- and 22-years-old, respectively) by our childhood nicknames, Pussycat and Tchotchke (Yiddish for "knickknack"). Pigeonholing this as a children's book is like saying "Romeo & Juliet" is merely a cautionary tale about drug abuse. I dare anyone to read this story and not shed at least one tear by the end. It's even more poignant when you learn that Munsch wrote the book as a memorial to two still-born children he and his wife had in 1979 and 1980., #5 on Instructor's "Teachers Pick the Top 50 Kids Books Ever", chosen by 200 teachers, authors, and children's literature experts, This best-selling classic of a parent's enduring love is available in a gift edition: slipcased with a laminated box and a clothbound book, Robert Munsch's beloved tale is gentle affirmation of the love a parent feels for her child -- forever., There are certain books about a parent's unconditional love for a child that are timeless--and this is one of them, There are certain books about a parent's unconditional love for a child that are timeless--and this is one of them., My children and I enjoyed it, night after night, for years...

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    Arrived on time. Packaging was lacking, product damaged in two places during shipping due to inadequate padding within the packaging. I can live with it seeing as I don't want to hunt down and pay for another copy... Item was as described minus the damage to the spine of the book in one place from the thin plastic wrapping not providing any rigidity or padding. This is the first time I have encountered this problem with this Fantastic seller. Excellent value. Thank you

    Perfect book for a male baby!!! Absolutely Lovely!!!

    I love this book and I give it as a baby shower gift when the baby is going to be a boy. If you have never read this book, I recommend that you do. If you have remember to grab the kleenexes. I have shared this book for a number of years and will continue to do so until I can no longer get copies as it goes out of print.

  • timeless classic

    I love this book, it is very near and dear to me. I would like to believe it was to someone else as well as this book was printed in 1996 and has the brand new off the shelf feel. With it being autographed is even more stupendous. Is there anymore history behind this book? I would love to know mainly because of the annotation, “to mother, grandma, friend”. Regardless of its history it makes you think, but I love it and will pass this story on to my own one day. Thank you very much for this opportunity.
