Review

As a mother and daughter take a stroll on a golden, windy autumn day , they enjoy the beauty that is nature. The little girl keeps at her mother to "say it" and her mother responds with lovely descriptive phrases and the little girl says "that's not what I mean." When at the end of their walk and mother says "I love you, I love you, I LOVE YOU." and the little girl says "That's what I wanted you to say." Mother replies "That's what I've been saying all the time." Beautifully illustrated - a treasure to share again and again.

Overall Book Score: very good
