I discovered this book by accident and it has literally become a staple of evening reading with my 2 1/2 year old. It's so great to watch a child grasp the concept that just because a parent is away from them during the day, doesn't mean they don't still love them. My daughter says "I Love and miss you all day long, Mommy" almost every day when I leave for work. I have given this book to all of my working mom friends, too! A must have!
(From quoting a guest reviewer)
Target readers:
New preschoolers/kindergarteners, especially those who suffer from separation anxiety.

From Publisher
Owen's anxious question prompts this heartwarming, comforting tale of how a parent's love stays with a child whether they are together or apart - all day long.

If Mama, Don't Go Out Tonight (reviewed below) explores the fear of Mom leaving the nest, this book gently explores the idea of a child heading out to school for the first time. How will Owen the pig survive a whole day at preschool without his mother? Not to worry, says apple-cheeked Mommy: all Owen has to do is remember that she'll love him "all day long." As his mother imagines him at various points in the day ("I love you when you make a new friend"; "I love you when you march to a clang-clickity-clang" as he bangs the cymbals), Burris (Kate and Nate) presents the series of scenarios with humor and affection. She renders the porcine cast in a glowing shade of peach-a warmhearted visual foil for the bright, bold colors of Owen's preschool world. Many of the author's scenarios focus on mishaps ("I love you when you accidentally make a mess or when you can't wait for the bathroom"), but overall, the volume sends a reassuring message that parents love their children even while they are apart. As for the young hero, his pudgy physique and extensive repertoire of expressions makes him a credible stand-in for any human youngster with start-of-school anxieties. Ages 3-5. |

The loving mama pig giving her young son a kiss and a hug on the cover of this book sets the reassuring tone. Owen doesn't want to go to school because, "Mommy, you won't be with me." Mommy concedes this; then the rest of the text explains why even during a separation their bond remains strong. "I love you when you make a new friend; I love you when you accidentally make a mess or when you can't wait for the bathroom; I love you when you have to call for help. I love you when you figure things out for yourself." Each bit of text is punctuated with the line, "I love you all day long." The simple, happy artwork, executed in jelly-bean colors, has a warmth and friendliness that will appeal to children facing situations like Owen's. A good book to comfort first-day preschoolers or kindergartners. |
