If a parent could vocalize all her deepest hopes for her child, this is what she might say...
 
Every parent has hopes and dreams for their children? that they will play and explore, learn and grow. That they will experience life's many wonders and persevere through its many challenges. That they will one day leave the protection of home and go off into the world strong, happy, knowing that they are always loved.

Maryann Cusimano Love, author of the modern classic You Are My I Love You, has written another moving ode to parenthood, captured in playful, loving images by brilliant newcomer Maria van Lieshout (Bloom!). This timeless book is perfect for bedtime or anytime.
 

 

Maryann Cusimano Love has been working with children since she was a teen—as a clown, storyteller, singer, puppeteer, and caregiver. Her You Are My . . . books arose out of her work with children. In addition to writing children’s books, she is a much sought-after speaker who once addressed the United Nations, by invitation of the Vatican, on the role of religion and peace in modern societies. Dr. Cusimano Love lives on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland with her husband, Rich, and their three children, Maria, Ricky, and Ava Rose. You can visit Maryann Cusimano Love at MaryannLove.com.
