Most parents of young children know it is necessary to continually reassure a child that he or she is loved. Lezlie Evans works on that premise, but she takes it one step further and stresses the importance of reminding children they are still loved even when their behavior has been less than exemplary.

Even if the child has been fussy, messy, pouting, noisy, or naughty, a parent's love should be unconditional. So when he asks, "Tell me, Mama, is it true —do you care the whole day through? Even when I do things wrong, do you love me all day long?", the mother's reply is always the same, "Yes, my precious one, it's true—no matter what you say or do, from dawn till after day is done, Mama loves her little one."

Featuring cute watercolor illustrations of different little animals, this is a picture book children two years of age and older will delight in having read to them at story time. Its message of love and reassurance can't be repeated too often!
