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.

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 Colour throughout

I have bought a copy of this book for each of my children when they were small and now I am starting the tradition with my grandchildren.
This book is awesome for both the child and the adult reader. It depicts the stages of life and the great amounts of love we have for our children and our parents at each stage, in a loving way.

Masterpiece
It's so incredibly simple, but so powerful as well. It brought tears to my eyes at age 6, and still at age 21...People always question does love exist?
This is indisputably love. The love between a parent and child.
