Product Description
The American Booksellers Book of the Year nominee is available as a sturdy board book for the youngest of children. Little Nutbrown Hare wants to show Big Nutbrown Hare how very much he loves him - but love as big as his is very hard to measure!
Amazon.com Review
Little Nutbrown Hare wants very much to impress Big Nutbrown Hare with the enormous scale of his devotion, but ends up being the one who's impressed. Subtitled "a pop-up edition," this sturdy square edition of Sam McBratney's ever-popular Guess How Much I Love You is probably better described as a "slide-along edition." Some pages do include pop-ups, but they aren't the best ones; instead, most involve pull-tabs which animate the two rabbits and their surroundings. One of the most appealing scenes simply shows Little Nutbrown Hare hopping up and down. In a purely technical sense this exercise in interactive cardboard technology is well behind some of the competition, but the tale has a timeless charm and the very simplicity of the movements makes it easy for small fingers to waggle the tabs and take control of the story. (Ages 2 to 4) --Richard Farr

 Love this book - perfect goodnight book for baby July 19, 2010
R. Zaretsky (New York Friggin City)
Once I transitioned my 3 month old to his own room and crib, I started reading this to him - he watches me read it intemtly and smiles every time. It's just the perfect book for bedtime and it reminds me of us and our special time together. I will keep this book and my memories of bedtime forever.
 Great Book for Cuddling... July 13, 2010
Jarucia Jaycox Nirula (Seattle, WA, USA)
I've read this book for a few years to my niece and have now started with my infant son.
It reminds me of the phone game I played with many of my relatives as a young child..."I love you more. No I love you more. I love you an infinity plus one."
I loved the way comparing the quantity of love made me feel when I was far away from some of my loved ones.
When I read this book to the little ones I love, I feel the same warmth inside and hope they will too.
Highly recommended, especially if the "I love you more" game is a family tradition.
Great for All Expecting or New Fathers! June 30, 2010
GW in CA (CA United States)
This is one of the few childrens' books I've come across that reads from a Father's perspective. Makes a perfect gift to any expecting or new Father with its great wording and excellent cadence. I personally love the really large size of the book and the beautiful illustrations; and I think it will be enjoyed by parent and child all the way through the toddler stage.
 Boring illustrations, and unproductive storyline. June 24, 2010
CB (NC)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The idea of the book is cute, but like others who have reviewed it here, I'm not a fan of the storyline: trying to out-love another person. This was given to us when my son was about 12mths old, but at that age, I prefer illustrations where a "face" is easily discernible, and ideally, colorful . These pencil drawings are so pale and small, an *adult* can barely make out the hares' faces/expressions. As of right now, my son's 15 months old, this book still bores him. And even when he can follow the storyline, I'm not sure I want him to!!
Summary: This is a "filler" book on our shelf that rarely gets read. It's just not much good for kids who don't speak yet, NOR is is any good for their self-esteam if they can understand the message...hahaha.
Guess How Much I Love This Book? A Lot. June 23, 2010
Tin Man (New York City)
Although it is not a big deal, I grew up in the Bronx and was severely beaten as a child. My parents cared little for me and would beat me blue if I did not finish my liverwurst. I told the doctors that I fell down the stairs. But it wasn't true. I was beaten.
I guess you could say it was fate that had me stumble upon this piece of literature. The love that the two characters share for each other is astronomical. (Not to give away the beautiful, touching ending, but they both profess that they love each other "to the moon... and back.") I have pasted the pictures of my parents' heads and pictures of my own head onto the heads of the characters in this book, and every night I fantasize about the childhood I might have had. My fiancee, Richard, loves me very much, but he is illiterate and from the Bronx so I have to read it to him.
Guess I shouldn't have eaten the liverwurst afterall, Dad. Love you.
Love,
your son.
