An excerise in Munsch's warped mind
I had to read this book for one of my field experiences. While the toddlers loved it and were laughing, I thought this book was horrible. It was explained to me (and also in some of the positive reviews here) that it's only a metaphor. I think that is too easy of a label to stick onto something in which the author, Robert Munsch,is so obviously disturbed. I think most people agree when the Mom (now an elderly lady) drives across town with a LADDER on top of her car it truly crosses a line.
I would like to ask the people who think this book is only a harmless
metaphor in love, would you still adore this book and give it five
stars and endless kudos if the gender roles were reversed?

I could've given this book 'no stars', if that was
an option. When I have school librarians and PH.D's also posting
why they dislike this book, then I know this so-called classic
is really an exercise in the warped mind of the author.

Loved it, own it
The first time I read this book was outloud to my son. I'd never read it before. I started crying while trying to finish reading it to him.

Love You Forever
Written By Robert Munsch
Illustrated by Sheila McGraw

I loved this story from the first time I heard it. The tender love of a mother and her child.

When I gave this book to my mother for mothers day, she said, "You were never that much touble."

I suppose if you took it literally you might think it strange, but I take this book as a symbol of un-ending love.

Negative Storyline
I agree with the reviews that say this storyline is a little twisted. The mother running after her son until her weak old age and going to extremes to express her love. However, I don't think my kids thought anything of that. What I did have a problem with was the portrayal of a no good kid. As a toddler, He's flushing things down the toilet ( and my 7 year old thought that was especially funny...did I mention my toilet is behaving funny?!!)and he continues to be disrespectful and make various messes throughout the book with no apparent concern for his mother at all. I would have liked to have seen some positivity before he reached his own older age. Children not only watch everything we do, they can imitate the examples we allow them to be exposed to. I started to scribble out the lines to change it a little ( my kids will be able to tell if I am not consistently telling it the same way) but it was too much to change.This went in the trash!

Beautiful Book!!!!!
This book is just beautiful. I remember the first time I heard this book. My husband and I was attending our 2nd child's pre-K orientation and the teacher read this book. I was 8 months pregnant with our 3rd and last baby and had lost my mother the year earlier. The words in the book touched my soul. My sister after hearing me talk about this book gave it to me for a gift. Some years later, when my oldest son and his wife had their first child, I gave my book to them. I purchased this book to save to give as a gift to my son who was just starting pre-K at the time when this book's story "message", was introduced to me ,when he begins his family. The shipping was quick and the book arrived in perfect condition.
