Part of an EXCELLENT series of books that I purchased for our grandson turning 2
Format: Hardcover
This along with the other “I love you” books in a series are absolutely amazing. I had no idea just how incredible and enjoyable this is for a toddler. I have to say, agreed, these are the best written for both the child and it’s parents. And the artwork is perfect which continues from book to book. A real find!

Decent book to help kids value mommy and daddy and the love they share with their children
Format: Hardcover
This is a decent book to help kids value mommy and daddy and the love they share with their children. It's got a few different stories in it for mommy, and the same for daddy. Half decent illustrations as well.
Don't get too overly excited, it's not a very large book so I don't know if you really get a lot for the money but the concept and material within the book should help serve some purpose.
