A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know is a touching and heartfelt ode about the way we feel for our children, by award-winning actors of stage and screen Leslie Odom, Jr. and Nicolette Robinson, and illustrated by Joy Hwang Ruiz.
Do you remember when we first met?
It was a moment I won’t soon forget.
Your sparkling aura. Your crooked grin!
Do you remember, my trusted friend?
When I count all my blessings, you’re always number one.
Sweetest of all is, we’ve only just begun.
The love we feel for our children never wavers. From the moment a baby is born, through the good times and the bad, from the silly moments to the warm embraces, this love is bigger than what we can put into words.
This beautiful book is a comforting and lyrical refrain about the bonds we form with the children to whom we are closest in our lives.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"When I count all my blessings,// you're always number one.// Sweetest of all is...// we've only just begun." Odom and Robinson's rhymes capture the unconditional love that various caregivers feel toward children in this poetic tribute. Hwang Ruiz's chromatic digital renderings have a luminous quality as they depict arrayed family formations of various abilities, body types, and skin tones doting on cherubic infants and toddlers—chestfeeding and cuddling, and enjoying mealtime and playtime, bath time and bedtime. A view of children wreaking havoc in the kitchen leans into the joyous messiness of family life, and a birthday celebration spread is full of smiling partygoers. Repeated use amplifies the driving sentiment: "Day by day,/ as I watch you grow,/ I love you more/ than you'll ever know." Ages 3–6.
