Guess How Much I Love YouThis classic children's book is a bedtime conversation between Big Nutbrown Hare and Little Nutbrown Hare (both male) about which one loves the other one more. Big and Little Hare are shown enjoying being physical together, and the book also subtly addresses the differences in abilities between grown men and little boys. A great book if you have a little boy who is in a competitive phase or enjoys being rough-and-tumble. The Leap Pad version combines the book's positive message with educational activities as well.
Guess How Much I Love You is definitely one of the best children's books around. It is a fun way to tell your child that you love him/ her a whole lot probably more than he or she can imagine.
It is a nice bonding book. Simple book that is easy for a child to like and to understand. A perfect reading for bedtime. More so if your child like bunnies. The illustrations are lively and fun. You can tell her, just before she closes her eyes, "I love you as high as the moon and back".
I read this to my daughter when she was little & now at 13 she's just become a big sister & insisted her little brother have this book, too. Very sweet book & it really is timeless.
This is such a wonderful childrens story. Therefor, I appreciate the fact that the English and Arabic text are both on the page. My son was fascinated the first time my husband read it to him in Arabic because he was familiar with the story and could kind of follow along with the pictures even if he didn't understand every word. My son and I frequently get into the "I love you up to the. Like I said though, it is all about how you want to use it. and back" routine. It still captivates my 6 year old son and my 3 year old daughter loves it. My husband can pick it up and read it to the kids in Arabic, and I can pick up the same book and read it to the kids in English.
What you think of this translation kind of depends on how you want to use it. My children are English speakers who we would like to see learn Arabic. I considered giving this book four stars due to the other reviewers comment about the book being laid out left to right, and it is true that it would be the opposite if it was solely an Arabic story book. My children will never be able to read the Arabic text on their own (or by the time they can they will no longer be interested in the book), so the fact that the pages are ordered left to right makes no difference to me.
