Why do You Love Me?
Martin Baynton
This is a really simple book for beginning readers. Each page contains one sentence and each sentence is about the many reasons a father loves his son despite all the trouble that the son can cause. The pictures depict a father a son going outside to a park to play with their dog. The pictures are very simple just like the text. The colors that the author chose to use for the illustrations were very light, which helped to give the book a more cheerful and smoothing tone. The book is for children ages three and up so I might read this to a kindergarten classroom but I think that older children would quickly lose interest in this text so I would get something a little more exciting and colorful for them.
