A propos du livre

Revue de presse

* "...[Doughty's] poem works just as well to describe a parent's love of his or her child as it does to express romantic affection." —Publishers Weekly, STARRED review "...[Before You's] bounty of metaphors and clever depictions of them make it a boon for classroom use." —Kirkus

One of Those Days words by amy krouse rosenthal pictures by rebecca doughty “entertaining... comically woeful scenarios” -New York Times Review of Books “idiosyncratic scraggly-line drawings... emanate good-humored glumness” -Horn Book Magazine You Are to Me “... sunny, unexpected metaphors avoid the cliches... an ego-boosting bagatelle for children, and also fun for grown-ups who may hear echoes of Cole Porter’s You’re the Top. –Booklist “A charming exploration of the joys of sharing.” -School Library Journal Lost and Found “Guileless and appealing for the disorganized youngster in us all.” -Kirkus Reviews

"...[Before You's] bounty of metaphors and clever depictions of them make it a boon for classroom use." —Kirkus

Présentation de l'éditeur

I was a flower with no pot  I was a polka with no dot     What did I do before you came along and changed the tune?       Through simple, yet lively text and whimsical illustration, the love from parent to child, or lover to lover, or friend to friend, is celebrated. The perfect gift for baby showers, Valentine’s Day, birthdays, weddings, and beyond.  Before You also works perfectly as a comforting and joyful read-aloud for parents to tuck their children into bed with. For fans of perennial favorites like  I Like You and  Guess How Much I Love You.
