That said, the illustrations by Emma Dodd will appeal to the youngest book explorers, with bold lines and bright colours sketching out characterised people and settings. As in the earlier books in the series, the children can be viewed as girls or boys. Some pages work really well: I particularly loved the plate of sizzling sausages, the beach scene and the child busy riding his trike, complete with rabbit and teddy on board. On a couple of pages there are interesting reflections to talk about and the garden scene is beautiful, with birds and insects to count together. I think slightly older children would be carried along by the illustrations for a limited period, perhaps as a library loan. I'd like to thank the publishers for sending this book.
Sadly, I far preferred the absolutely brilliant [[There's a House Inside my My Mummy by Giles Andreae and Vanessa CabanCabban]], which is robust and humorous enough to take you through nine months of waiting for a baby to arrive.
Other Bookbag reviewers liked the two earlier titles [[I Love My Mummy by Giles Andreae and Emma Dodd|I Love My Mummy]] and [[I Love My Daddy by Giles Andreae and Emma Dodd|I Love my Daddy]] from the same authors.
