This is a beautiful book。 I believe this is where the quote came from as “I love you to the moon and back”。 Such a nice book to read to your child about love。 This will become one of our favorites
Myrna,
Fantastic book。

Best book ever。 ❤️😍😘

This is one of my absolute favorites, as well as my children's。 One still has it, I think, and one asked for it for her baby shower。 A must for the picture-book library。 This is one of my absolute favorites, as well as my children's。 One still has it, I think, and one asked for it for her baby shower。 A must for the picture-book library。 。。。more

So the child is trying its damndest to express how much he loves his parent。。。 and the parent constantly one-ups the kid。 Supposed to be sweet, but reads like a handbook on how to discourage a child。 (I'm being deliberately contrary。 This book is seriously overrated, and appeals the emotional gushings of the baby-crazy。 Skip it - there are better options out there!)。 Robert Munsch "I'll Love You Forever" and Barbara Joosse "Mama, Do You Love Me?" are two just off the top of my head So the child is trying its damndest to express how much he loves his parent。。。 and the parent constantly one-ups the kid。 Supposed to be sweet, but reads like a handbook on how to discourage a child。 (I'm being deliberately contrary。 This book is seriously overrated, and appeals the emotional gushings of the baby-crazy。 Skip it - there are better options out there!)。 Robert Munsch "I'll Love You Forever" and Barbara Joosse "Mama, Do You Love Me?" are two just off the top of my head 。。。more

On a personal note, my mother would read this to me when I was a child。 she would always tell my sister and I about how much she loved us and how she would do anything for us。 To this day she still says guess how much I love and it fills my heart every time she says it。 That's the reason why I gave this book a 5-star rating because it connects with me on a personal note。 This book centers on the question of how much you can love someone。 It is the classic tale of a little baby rabbit trying to t On a personal note, my mother would read this to me when I was a child。 she would always tell my sister and I about how much she loved us and how she would do anything for us。 To this day she still says guess how much I love and it fills my heart every time she says it。 That's the reason why I gave this book a 5-star rating because it connects with me on a personal note。 This book centers on the question of how much you can love someone。 It is the classic tale of a little baby rabbit trying to tell his daddy rabbit how much he loves him, and each time he thinks he has come up with a greater and even bigger way to show his love to his daddy, his dad’s love becomes greater。 The final quote from the daddy rabbit says it all, “I love you to the moon and back。” 。。。more

Super cute and simple story。 I got this book for my baby sister because it is a good one to have! It is a perfect bedtime story or to have in the classroom because it is short and sweet。 It involves bunnies and cute pictures。
Megan Eliza,
This story was very cute, I really like the use of animals, the illustration, and of the characters attempting to show their love。 I like the constant theme of showing and reminding the other of how much they love them throughout the story, a love a parent has for their baby is unconditional and bigger than they could imagine。
Lbelas115,
I have always loved this book when I was little。 Reading it again has reminded me how I would copy how the rabbits would show how much they loved each other with my family。 I rate this story to the moon and back
Kelly Woznik,

Jenny,
I was amazed by this book, so imagine my surprise when I found a few sad reviews about it。 Someone said: “Can't the parent just let the kid win one? Even after kid falls asleep, the parent has to one-up the frustrated, exhausted child。 Go pick on someone your own size!”Then another reviewer agreed, saying that “Guess How Much I Love You turns loving each other into "a competition where the child can never win against the parent”。 Competition? Really? There’s no competition in this book, only a p I was amazed by this book, so imagine my surprise when I found a few sad reviews about it。 Someone said: “Can't the parent just let the kid win one? Even after kid falls asleep, the parent has to one-up the frustrated, exhausted child。 Go pick on someone your own size!”Then another reviewer agreed, saying that “Guess How Much I Love You turns loving each other into "a competition where the child can never win against the parent”。 Competition? Really? There’s no competition in this book, only a parent who’s trying his best to let his kid know that he loves him more than words can ever say。 He wants the kid to know that he’ll always be there for him no matter what。 I may not have a son, but I have a dad who has given me nothing but love my entire life。 Dad would never see me fall because he wants to win, and he would definitely do everything in his power to let me know that I’m safe in his love。 The parent in the book is just doing the same。 I really appreciate G。 Miller’s review, he nailed the book’s essence beautifully。 He said:“This book is about the nature of the love that exists between parent and child。 No matter how much your children love you, I assure you that it will never be as much as you love them。 That's what this book is about”。 I certainly agree and thoroughly recommend Guess How Much I Love You。 。。。more
