I do not love everything from Dr. The father-son motif is particularly nice as it is less often seen in children's literature.Personally I do not see the negative angle (competitive love) but I will not fault other parents for deciding this is not the right one for them. edition, 1995). Never fear, it is also a great book to read with older toddlers, since at that age (4/5), children are starting to exaggerate and tell tall tales. The board book is handy for on-the-go or for the kids to look at themselves, although it does lose a few great illustrations. Books can speak to people in different ways.

It was so expensive (17$), but only several pages.$5 may be the fair price.
This is a great book. A great way to tell someone how much you love them.
