About This Book
Reach for this book when your child asks the inevitable and difficult question: Who do you love more? It is a gentle, poetic solution for families navigating sibling rivalry or a child's need for individual validation. The story follows a mother and her two sons on a fishing trip, using rich sensory metaphors to describe her love for each boy based on their unique personalities. While one son is celebrated for his vibrant energy, the other is cherished for his quiet depth. Perfect for children ages 3 to 7, this book moves away from the idea of equal love as a divided pie, instead presenting it as a personalized experience. It offers a beautiful vocabulary for parents to express how they treasure the specific, unrepeatable qualities of each of their children.
