I'll Be There
Always
by Ann Stott, illustrated by Matt Phelan
Baby-PreK 32 pages Candlewick August 2008 Hardcover    

One sleepy child reflects upon his day remembering the things he did right as well as those he did not. From getting dressed by himself to finger-painting with toothpaste, the day passes in a mischievous flourish. But when bedtime rolls around, the big question is, “Do you love me?” Mother reassures her boy in the way the title conveys.

Children’s author and book designer Ann Stott wrote this book when her son wondered if she still loved him after a particular bout of naughtiness. She felt it was important that he know a parent’s love is unconditional.

Pair her lovely text with Matt Phelan’s adorable watercolor artwork and you’ve got a pleasing and comfortable bedtime read that’s sure to please both children and adults.
