I am having a hard time deciding how I feel about this book. On one hand, I really loved the illustrations and the general premise for the story. However, it seemed to me that the author went back and forth between the child pretending to be an animal and actually being one. It would have worked better for me had she just went with the later. In the end, I found the story reminiscent of The Runaway Bunny (which I loved). I was left feeling that it was a forced attempt to replicate the feeling that Margaret Wise Brown was able to so beautifully portray. Who doesn't love a sweet story to express to your child how much you love them? In Nancy Tillman's new book, I'd Know You Anywhere My Love, touches the very depth of every parents' love for their child. With gentle rhymes, and beautiful pictures, this book is such a delight to read.Tillman is nothing short of amazing! She has so beautifully captured the beauty of the animals painted, it's almost as if they could walk out of the book! I love how she could write such a touching book and leave me a blubbering mess, reminding me that my children are my entire world!Reviewed by Steph for New Age Mama

Beautiful illustrations but a text that's pure saccharine.
