Publisher Description
I Couldn’t Love You More tells a sweet, loving, yet powerful message: I couldn’t love you more, but there is someone who does. Through the unique relationship of adorable animals, the book shares that Christ is always with you and he loves you more than you can imagine.
This engaging picture book combines lovable and irresistible images with the lyrics from the song (co-written by Jason Ingram and Matt Hammitt). Matt is lead vocalist for Sanctus Real, a Grammy-nominated Christian rock band. The song is on Hammitt’s latest album, Every Fallen Tear. When Matt and his wife, Sarah, were halfway through her pregnancy, they discovered their son would be born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS), a rare congenital defect. Matt and Sarah’s son, Bowen, was born on 9/9/10 and received a huge following through the Hammitts’ blog (bowensheart.com), K-LOVE, and ABC News. A portion of the proceeds from the book goes to the foundation the Hammitts have started to help parents with children who have this heart condition.
Special eBook edition includes narration by Matt Hammitt, as well as the song that inspired the book.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Ingram and Hammitt, the former a songwriter and the latter lead vocalist for the Christian rock band Sanctus Real, team with Lovsin (What's That Noise, Little Mouse?) to create a picture book from the lyrics to one of their songs. The message is that, as strong as a parent's love is for his child, Jesus' love is even stronger. Each two-page spread contains one of Lovsin's colorful paintings of cuddly animal babies frolicking in nature as the seasons turn and one short stanza from the song. The joyful expressions on the animals' faces dovetail nicely with the loving lyrics. A portion of the proceeds from the book and album support the Whole Hearts Foundation, a nonprofit founded by the Hammitts to help children with congenital heart defects. Ages 3 8.
