Summary:This book was originally a song, and inside the back cover of the book, is a CD of Miss Melanie singing the song. When Melanie would tuck her children into bed at night, she made sure they knew how much they were loved. She told them she loved them more than anything – even chocolate! Her children knew she was a chocoholic, so they had no doubt, they knew they were loved. – from author’s website
I too am a chocoholic and my kids know that so I thought this would be a great book to read to them. They loved it. My second daughter always needs reassurance of my love so hearing that I love her more than all these things is perfect for her and my first daughter who is also a chocoholic, likes to look for the pages that show chocolate. I made sure to tell my girls after reading it that I wasn’t just reading the words, it was true as well!
The book comes with a CD of Melanie singing the song. I always liked the idea of singing a song to my children at night when I tuck them in but never had the right song so I rarely do. This is very sweet.
The illustrations are detailed in some parts and more simple in others but it works. This book would make the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for your children!
Here is a video of Melanie singing the song:
