A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

[Review of earlier edition and format: ] The one book that has the most meaning to me.--David Maloof"Boston Globe" (09/15/2002)[Review of earlier edition and format: ] Sentimental story that has long been a favorite gift at baby showers.--Karen T.Bilton"Bridgewater Courier News" (04/26/2005)[Review of earlier edition and format: ] The best of Munsch's many storybooks... it'll give you a new song to sing... and maybe a bit of perspective down the road.--Leanne Dohy"Calgary Herald" (09/25/2003)[Review of earlier edition and format: ] One of my all-time favorites. I cry every time I read it.... [The book] is a beautiful script about parenthood, a poignant parable about life and death, a testimony to when the roles of child and parent become blurry. The story reminds you that no matter how grown up you are, you're always someone's child; that no matter how "adult" you are, you're never too old to be loved by your parents. It makes me appreciate even more how my mother still calls me and my brother (despite us being 32- and 22-years-old, respectively) by our childhood nicknames, Pussycat and Tchotchke (Yiddish for "knickknack"). Pigeonholing this as a children's book is like saying "Romeo & Juliet" is merely a cautionary tale about drug abuse. I dare anyone to read this story and not shed at least one tear by the end. It's even more poignant when you learn that Munsch wrote the book as a memorial to two still-born children he and his wife had in 1979 and 1980.--Dana Lenetz"Forbes" (04/20/2010)[Review of earlier edition and format: ] A humorous, sentimental page-turner that rarely -- let's say never -- leaves a reader with a dry eye.--Gayle MacDonald"Globe and Mail" (12/01/2005)[Review of earlier edition and format: ] My children and I enjoyed it, night after night, for years... It is a charmer. The simple story touches the heart.--Jeith L. Runyon"Louisville Courier-Journal" (11/13/2005)[Review of earlier edition and format: ] No one can read this without the tears falling.--Sharon Owen"Madera Tribune" (05/08/2003)[Review of earlier edition and format: ] There is a powerful, age-old resonance to the story, centered on that intangible, steadfast bond between mother and child. --Shelley Fralic"National Post" (05/15/2006)

[Review of earlier edition and format: ] The starting point for a first-rate library for your grandchildren... a tender ode to the life cycle of a family. --John Lownsbrough"Outlook Magazine" (06/01/2004)

[Review of earlier edition and format: ] Our No. 1 Favorite, 50 Great Children's Books --Susan Belkapp, Maggie Beidelman and Craig Reem"OC Family" (09/01/2007)
