this is a wonderful story on motherly love and how children perceive it. it's such a sweet read and something all mothers should read to their kids! it's beautifully illustrated and perfect as a bedtime story.

thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I received an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This was such a sweet read! Anthony is very loved by his mama and he knows it. He cited simple things that are a big deal to him, like playing video games with him or being proud when he gets good grades. It made me look forward to the wonderful bonds I will have with my babies as they get older. Perfect as a gift for your kiddo or mom! Pictures kind of reminded me of the 90s barbie books because everyone was so cute and slim 😆

I'm a 33 year old woman with tears running down her face because this book is the definition of PERFECTION. Everyone big and small needs to read this book and know (or remember) that there's nothing like a mother's love in this world. No one will ever love you like your mum does.

Please excuse me while I finish ugly crying and then go force everyone I know to buy a copy of this book.

This is a sweet picture book told from the perspective of a young child showing that he knows his mommy loves him. Each page has nice detailed pictures as well as about one sentence of text. I think that this book would be an appropriate reading level for children in about grade 1. It would also be a nice shared reading experience for younger children. I would recommend this book for families and potentially schools, with children in the 3-7 age range. Amazon recommends 4-8, and that is probably fine too, but I'm wondering if the use of the word mommy in the title might scare off a few 8 year olds. As a grade 3 teacher I sometimes hear mommy, but I think most students are starting to move away from that name by about that age. Other than that it is a really sweet story to be enjoyed by many children! Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book!

Very sweet children's book. It shows the love and dedication from mother to son. The illustrations were beautiful and it brought back memories for me of my own mother. My daughter would love for me to read her a book like this.

The cover and the title were why I reviewed this. I loved the illustrations and the story. I am excited to read it with my kids. It reminds me of my favorite children's book to read with my kids, Love You Forever by Robert Munsch.

What a beautiful and perfect gift. I was drawn to it for reminding me of my childhood favorite series (Growing up in Europe we had Martine by Marcel Marlier) So nostalgic. The artwork of All the Ways Mommy Loves me is just stunning and the list of illustrated ways to be loved is sweet.
I love that the main character is a boy.

Very cute story! I read this to my 5 year old daughter and she really enjoyed it. She said she liked all of it. Very lovely illustrations and simple for kids to understand. I would definitely recommend this book!

A wondaful picture book about all the ways a child's mom loves them. How you can feel love when you least expect it. I'm not going to live I'm an adult and this book had me sobbing. Every family needs for their picture book collection.

This was a beautifully illustrated book about how a mother shows her child love by all of her actions for him. I liked all the different examples of how the mother showed love.
It does feature prayer, which I didn't think was necessary, as it could isolate non-religious children.

Great book. Very good for reading with kids. E book format is not best with pictures as they can be separated from writing however my kid loves it

Ok this brought me back to Martine books, has a really cute drawing with a nice message that I believe everyone will like, this was perfect for me to read to my kids, I have 4 years old and 8 years old ^_^ and it was a story that helped us connect and cuddle ^__^

I highly recommend this story book.

Got a free ARC through NetGalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

( i dont seem to find this book on goodreads, nor in bookbub)

This is the sweetest book! My son’s name is Anthony and hearing is name in the book made him really excited.

The illustrations are beautiful and the story is so heartfelt! I really enjoyed.

Great gift for any mom!

This book was very cute and less generic than poetic/love-note-y children's books often are (in the sense of really painting a vivid picture of the love being celebrated, not just going, "Ohhh I love you"), but I was a little confused about what age it was for. The front cover (and this style of story in general) felt appropriate for about ages 2-5 (or maybe even younger - I read it with my infant, and obviously he doesn't understand any of it, but it looked as suited to his age as any other books marketed for babies), but the kid in the book is clearly older. True, kids generally prefer characters a little older than them - but some of the experiences in the book felt like they wouldn't be particularly relatable to kids in this age bracket (e.g. receiving grades at school) and might just make it seem less relevant. The book was also much longer than I would expect for that age range, or for this style of story. I feel like books of this genre are generally something like 10-15 pages, but this one was 30 - and honestly felt longer, because it jumped around so much to completely different topics, rather than having a logical flow from page to page (sometimes it did, but usually only for 2-3 pages and then it would switch to something completely unrelated, with no apparent order to the different topics).

Such a cute book! My son and I had a fun time reading this before bedtime. He loved the imagery and that it was discussing something similar to his relationship with me (his mother). I am a single Mom so finding books that are more geared to what he is familiar with is hard as most include both parents in them. He loved it so much he was smiling and pointing out the pictures along the way saying "we do that!". Thank you for a great book that helped me have a beautiful bonding moment with my son! I only gave it 4 stars due to the layout issue for ebook version, it cuts the imagery in half and splits the same page into 2 images on 1 page in the Kindle edition.

This was a lovely book, making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. The pictures were beautiful, and I liked that we got to see the boy grow up. Showing how normal activities could be examples of what love really is, was a smart move. Words are not the only way to describe closeness and comfort.

Sweet book with lovely sentiment. The simple sentences will be easy for little boys who will love to read this themselves, with their Moms.

This book was so sweet especially for a reader like me who has two boys of my own! All of the “reasons why” were very relatable and I could see any child reading this book understanding the point of the book. The pictures were also really detailed and beautiful!

The book was very endearing to me and I could see myself reading it to my own children for them to enjoy!

This is very sweet-spirited, lovely book about a young boy who feels loved and cherished by his mother because of all the ways she shows her love for him. The illustrations are soft, vivid, and pretty. This would make a nice wind-down or snuggle time book.

The love between mothers and children can be boundless, but the book may be a tad long for young kids. Also, while this revolves around a lovely idea, it also reinforces some of the unrealistic expectations put on mothers--this mom is shown as endlessly kind, patient, devoted, and attractively turned out while constantly serving up home-cooked meals and baking cookies and sewing Halloween costumes. It's certainly nice, but I was exhausted just reading it! It might have been nice to have lovingly acknowledged the mother's imperfections or own interests as well.

Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review!

What a sweet story of a wonderful mother/son relationship!

If only all relationships were this touching and perfect. I enjoyed the focus on the various depictions of love displayed by the mother.

My one complaint would be that it’s almost too perfect, mothers are human too and can’t check all of the boxes provided here everyday.

Read if you’re interested in a sweet relationship between mother and son!
