Forever Padded Board Book

How long does a parent’s love last? Forever!

“If you’re ever feeling scared, I’ll be right beside you. If you’re ever feeling lost, know that I will find you.”

A polar bear cub discovers that, through life’s ups and downs, a parent’s love lasts forever. Featuring rhyming text and delightful artwork, this much-loved title is now available as a padded board book.The simple digital illustrations are sweet and comforting.... Some scenes are particularly striking — one spread depicts a bold, blue night sky with a bright full moon casting the duo’s reflections on still water; another spread shows the bears marveling at the vivid colors of the aurora borealis — but the general quietness of the artwork reflects the gentleness of a mother’s calm, heartfelt assurances. The message is universal, and the words can’t be said enough. The bears are certainly stand-ins for any adoring mother-child pair.
