"I love you to the moon and back"
Guess How
Much I Love You is a British children’s book written by Sam McBratney,
illustrated by Anita Jeram and published in 1994.
More than
28 million copies have been sold worldwide and it has been translated into 53
languages.
Guess How
Much I Love You has been published in several different formats, suitable for
children from 1.5 to 8.
It has been
adapted as a television cartoon in the US.
This is the
story of two Nutbrown Hares, Big Nutbrown Hare and Little Nutbrown Hare. The
two are never stated to be father and son in the original storybooks, though
are reffered to as such in the narration for the animated television series. Little
Nutbrown Hare asks Big Nutbrown Hare the titular question, “Guess how much I
love you?", and the book continues as the two use larger and larger measures to
quantify how much they love each other in answer to the question. The story is
simple, but effectively shows the love the two share for each other.
This book
helps young children express their feelings, share their care, and develop
their own selfesteem. It also works with guessing structures, comparatives and
sequence of actions.
