This book was a cute read with my tiny person. Bright colors, short phrases, sweet message. This is all around a good choice for a board book style read with a kiddo you love.

This is completely adorable!!! The munchkin and I have read this approximately 3468421 times today! The illustrations are perfect and the message is heart melting. I'll definitely be purchasing a copy of this once it's released!

"I love you so much
but there's more in my heart.
How is that possible?
Well, where do I start?"

This is a delightful, rhyming, interactive book that little ones will love. It's brimming with happiness and love. The illustrations are big, bold and bursting with colour.

It is perfect to share at bedtime served up with cuddling and lots of hugs. Kids are encouraged to knock, make a silly face, blow their biggest loudest kiss, squeeze, hug, tip, point, push and flip the book - all great interactive play. These actions words will increase vocabulary skills.

The adorable little heart emoji is a painter extraordinaire and has a great love for all the colours of the rainbow. It introduces kids to not only colours but also shapes. It continually reassures the reader that no matter how much love it has to give there is always more to dispense.

"My love's an endless, open door.
I'll always love you more and more!"

I highly recommend this book. Read the book and let the lovefest begin!

This was a very sweet book and I really enjoyed reading it with my daughter. The pictures are bright and colourful and the message was great! I especially loved how interactive the story was, we loved calling out the colours and shaking the book.

The artwork was adorable and I enjoyed the interactive elements of this story. It would be great for toddlers. My only critique is that the story was a bit disjointed.

Lol! I liked this book! All about love for someone. Could make a good one for a parent to read to a child, or someone to give as a gift to someone special for valentine's Day, or just because! The illustrations are big and bold and mostly smiley hearts! I think everyone can enjoy this one.

2 stars.

The first word I thought after I'd read this was.....'huh?'

I just didn't get it. It didn't have a story and some pages just didn't make sense. I think I get that the author was trying to poetically send the message from reader to listener that there is a whole lot of love to give and it comes in different forms and that there is always more over to give from the person's heart. That is what I took from it. But I don't think most kids would get it. Mainly because as an adult (though some days I beg to differ), even I didn't get it fully. I think it might just need a few touch ups.

I will say that I did really like the illustrations thought. They were pretty good. Very basic but well done, wth excellent bright and bold colouring. Perfect for attracting little kids eyes. Unfortunately this is still a pass from me.

I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This was a cute idea with some bright colorful pictures. It got to be a little contrived for me, but I think kids will like it.

The character talks to the reader, telling as well as, showing them just how much love they have in their lives. Whether that is from their mother, father, siblings, grandparents, whoever decides to read them the story. Just like the character has love in all shapes, sizes and colors, so do the people in the reader's life show them love in various ways! Such a sweet story that invites the reader to interact with the character and experience the love.

What a sweet book. The illustrations are so vivid and beautiful. This is such an uplifting loving book that I would love to read to my child at night before bed. This is a great message of how much love there really is in the world.

Thanks so much to NetGalley for the advanced reading copy!

I... don't get it.

I mean, I get that this book is trying to be like Don't Push the Button! Sort of. There's not a ton of "interactive" stuff, and what there is is kind of weak. Basically, this is just a prolonged rhyme told by a heart... and I think that's what's bugging me. Who is this heart supposed to be, and why does it keep saying it loves me? I don't even know it!

I thought maybe this would have more about diversity and inclusion (based on how the word "always" is coloured in the title), but aside from a brief mention of differences, there's not much about that. It's just this heart going on and on about how much it loves the reader.

Is it supposed to be the parent's heart? Or... is it just a disembodied organ that's eventually going to get charged with sexual harassment because it won't leave people alone?

I don't know. All I know is that I kind of wish there were a page with instructions on what the reader is supposed to do to make the repetitive heart stop saying it loves them. (I guess closing the book is as good a technique as any...)

Okay, in all seriousness, this isn't terrible, but I don't get the heart or what it's trying to accomplish. Trying to combine a poem about love with an interactive picture book that has kids flapping the volume in the air is just... odd. I'm sure there are some little kids who will take a fancy to this, but the adults who'll have to read it to them over and over might not be as enthused about it.

A very sweet little book all about love. A wonderfully creative and colourful addition to any child's library.
