Love You Forever Pop-Up Edition - Hardcover
The much-loved bestseller, now in a pop-up edition.
When we published Love You Forever in 1986, we thought it had great appeal.
But we had no idea that booksellers would love it and sell 30 million copies.
Now there is a gift edition whose characters move!
A young mother holds her baby, and while she sings to it she rocks it back and forth.
And through her life, and the stages of his life, she holds her son and rocks him back and forth as she tells him that she will love him forever.
In double-page spreads and gatefolds, the whole text of Love You Forever is in this book, and enhanced with three-dimensional elements. But even better is the feature that moves -- as the chorus is sung, you can move the characters back and forth.
This makes a wonderful extra feature for young readers, the grandchildren of people who raised their own children with this story and who want to pass it to a new generation.
Paper engineering by Bruce Foster.

Review:
The mother sings to her sleeping baby: "I'll love you forever / I'll love you for always / As long as I'm living / My baby you'll be." She still sings the same song when her baby has turned into a fractious 2-year-old, a slovenly 9-year-old, and then a raucous teen. So far so ordinary--but this is one persistent lady. When her son grows up and leaves home, she takes to driving across town with a ladder on the car roof, climbing through her grown son's window, and rocking the sleeping man in the same way. Then, inevitably, the day comes when she's too old and sick to hold him, and the roles are at last reversed. Each stage is illustrated by one of Sheila McGraw's comic and yet poignant pastels. (Ages 4 to 8) --Richard Farr
