Amazon.com Review
The mother sings to her sleeping baby: "I'll love you forever / I'll love you for always / As long as I'm living / My baby you'll be." She still sings the same song when her baby has turned into a fractious 2-year-old, a slovenly 9-year-old, and then a raucous teen. So far so ordinary--but this is one persistent lady. When her son grows up and leaves home, she takes to driving across town with a ladder on the car roof, climbing through her grown son's window, and rocking the sleeping man in the same way. Then, inevitably, the day comes when she's too old and sick to hold him, and the roles are at last reversed. Each stage is illustrated by one of Sheila McGraw's comic and yet poignant pastels. (Ages 4 to 8) --Richard Farr
Product Description
A young woman holds her newborn son and looks at him lovingly. Softly she sings to him "I'll love you forever, /I'll like you for always/ As long as I'm living/my baby you'll be".This is the story of how that little boy goes through the stages of childhood and becomes a man.

 Adult children a "must!" March 15, 2010
GrandmaKaren (Indiana)
Love You Forever This is a great book to be given as a gift as a reminder to grown children that parents should be loved,cared for, and remembered always!
Excellent book - March 13, 2010

I bought this book for my granddaughter who is expecting her first baby. This washer favorit as a child. So happy to get it. Excellent Service received.
 Terrible, disturbing children's book March 13, 2010
Jessie (Wisconsin)
I got this book for as a gift, and it's the most disturbing children's book I've ever read. The son goes from baby to grown man in 3 pages, and his mother ages about 3 times as fast as he does. In a few pages she's about 90 while her son is still young. Then, she calls to tell him she's dying, and he cradles her in his arms and sings to her?! There's no joy in it. It's a terrible, terrible book and I won't read it to my children. Stick with Goodnight Moon and go to bed happy!
Beautiful! March 4, 2010
Ok first off I thought this book was beyond beautiful! For those who where creeped out by it...OMG how jaded are you? Your parents should have read it to you when you were a child! My 4 year old understood perfectly what it meant and symbolized... um no the mom isn't a creepy stocker! I was having a hard week because she was being the biggest brat in the world and i was at my wits end when I received the book I had forgotten I ordered, I read it to her and we became emotional and she apologized for her behavior and understood that no matter what I will love her forever and she will always be my baby. I would recommend it to any and all parents out there and those who aren't parents but have a special child in their life.
CREEEEEEPY!! March 3, 2010

we gave this book away after getting totally creeped out. the old lady at the end, climbing into her grown son's room...crreeeepeeee!! i can see where they were going with this, but the outcome just makes the mom look like a scary stalker!!
and the pictures are equally disturbing!!
the mantra of "i'll love you forever..." gets into your head like a bad song on the radio, too.
TONS of other books to buy and read...keep looking.
