Why Do You Love Me?

Arrived on time Good book

What an excellent book to share with children of all ages! This is one of my favorite childrens book. It helps explain to children what it means when you say " I love you". Sammy's questions to his mother are questions many children have, but don't necessarily ask. Reading this book helps them to understand that no matter what they do-good or bad, their parents will love them always. They may be angry with them or upset, but that dosen't mean that their love for their children has stopped. I recommend this book to anyone who loves to read. This is a message everyone should hear and understand no matter what age.

My grandson listened intently and was thrilled with the illustrations, when I read it to him and his mother. She wasn't too thrilled when I told her I ordered the book, because Dr. Laura is a bit too conservative for her. But once she heard it, she became a big fan. Our only grand/child is no longer an only child since the recent birth of our second. We now have to discipline him because we now have many more constraints in our daily lives. ie, 'quiet, baby sleeping', 'can't play with you right now, have to feed baby', etc.It helps his parents, and grand-parents explain that we still love him no matter what. Thank you Dr. Laura. Linda

This book deals in a meaningful and appropriate way with the emotions and fears that come up in children. As a pre-school teacher I spend a large amount of time in the bookstore in the constant search of fine books. I found this book by chance, reading my way through many, many books, while I was looking for the perfect birthday-gift for one of my students. I had never heard the authors name before. I was immedetialy in awe with the book. Every single word seemed so meaningful. True - this book is written on a subject that is quite obvious for us grown up's and we probably take it for granted. But what a powerful way to tell and remind children that your parents love is unconditional. I'd like to highly recommend it !!!!

Sometimes a mother loves her children so much she can't put her feelings in to words. I found this book an excellent way to express what she feels. I gave this to my 19 year old son. I wanted him to look back on this book and see the exact way I felt towards him. Sometimes this makes these feelings easier to understand.

Dr. Laura captures the essence of insecurity that children go through. They wonder if love comes and goes like their good behavior does. My two boys we are adopting found this book very comforting and helpful in understanding our love for them and their growing love and acceptance for us. It stimulated a great discussion. Bravo to Dr. Laura!
