A heartfelt celebration of parental love and the beauty of nature.

How much does Mom love her little Rae? More than seal pups and penguins love their icy home, more than dolphins love the boundless sea, or lions love to race and roar, more even than all the stars, the moon and the sun combined. In fact, she loves her more than words can even say . . .

A beautiful, lyrical story which reassures children that the love between a parent and child is unconditional and everlasting, whilst encouraging them to explore and discover, to change and grow.

Perfect for fans of Giles Andreae and Emma Dodd and picture books Guess How Much I Love You? by Sam McBratney and Anita Jeram and No Matter What by Debi Gliori.

Written by Clare Helen Welsh, author of All the Animals Were Sleeping and Time to Move South for Winter, with stylish, retro artwork from Kevin and Kristen Howdeshell.

I Love You More is about how much a mother loves her daughter. This book gives examples of the extent of the love this mother has for her daughter, Rae, and how this love is so much more than words can say.

What I Liked: When I saw this book the cover stood out to me immediately because it had a unique drawing style. I enjoy books that you can share with anyone whom you love and this was no different. The examples that the mother gives to explain how far her love expands are great examples that children can understand. This is a great way to measure a concept that can sometimes be abstract.

The illustrations in this book are unique and I love the cartoon aspects included throughout this story. I love getting to see the illustrators take on different animals that you would encounter in various terrains. The art in this book is playful and fun, it was great reading this book and feeling like the animals were taking you along with them as they played in the background.

Final Verdict: I Love You More is a great story for parents to read with their children to explain that their love for them is unconditional and everlasting. This book provides parents with ways to show just how much they love their children and with a way for the child to then also share how much they love their parents.
