“Mommy Do You Love Me?” by Jeanne Willis, Illustrated by Jan Fearnley, 2008
I love this book because it shows the child reading the book that no matter what he does, mommy will always love him. It is about a mother hen and her chick. The chick does various things to see if mommy will still love him, and mommy always says she still does. She says, “Sometimes you make me mad, and sometimes you make me sad, but no matter what you say or do, I will always love you.”
I find books like this one really speak to my daughter’s heart. It is a message that I have to continually let her know. I don’t think that it is a “Christian” book, but unconditional love is a Christian message. We are only able to love our children unconditionally because Christ loved us first. So I highly recommend this book. Also, the illustrations are absolutely beautiful and aid in the story telling, especially for the little ones. Great book!
Our boys loved this book too! I will have to check out the Pete & Pillar book. 🙂
