School

This is a fun book to read about imagination and adventure. Was one of Mx's first favorite books. I will always feel nostalgic with this book.

It's a cute story with a kid testing their mothers love with funny scenarios. This book has nothing really special to share with a class, I personally wouldn't add this to my classroom.

He goes through all sorts of imaginative scenarios, and the mother continues to tell him the things she would do for him and that she will always love him no matter what form he would take.
- Tags/Subject Headings that Describe the Content: A mothers undying love and affection, creative scenarios.
- My response: I love all aspects of this book; it reminds me of the love my mother and I share for each other no matter what forms we take. I thought it was strong in the actual story and the illustrations because each was beautifully creative.

This is a fabulous picture book which helps the young reader understand that no matter what they have done or question, their family will always be there to love them. This is a wonderful picture book for a bedtime read aloud, or a read aloud in class after returning from recess. For the older students, studying the illustions and the simplicity of the text can be a cross-curricular support between art and word choice.

This is a sweet story with imaginative illustrations, reflecting the love and reassurance a mother/parent can give their child.

A classic story about a mom and how much she loves her son. I remember my own mother reading this book to me when I was younger, and I'm so glad I now have that memory with my daughter as well. Very precious.

Te Echo de Menos Carita Sucia!; de McCourt, Lisa.

Few books can show the depths of love a mother has for her child without being overly sweet and still having a laugh. But this book achieves it with fun illustrations to help show what the little stinky-face boy is imagining.

A child imagines them self as various uncuddly creatures while their mother promises unconditional love. A sweet and charming story, about the unconditional love a mother has for her child.

:D

Anyone who knows a little girl who thinks she "rules" - need to look at this book. :)

I Love You Stinky Face is a story with an attention grabbing title, great art and a wonderful message. It leaves you with a happy feeling. It's a great addition to any children's library.

This is a great book about a boy wondering if his mom would still love him if he were stinky like a skunk, or a swamp monster or a dinosaur. I enjoyed this bedtime story as there was no fighting over going to bed (something my own son never did and I appreciated that so we stuck to books without that theme). The unconditional love of a parent is something that children should know we always have within us.

This is a good book about being thankful. Maybe a good book to read near Thanksgiving.

A great book showing the love a mother has for her child. This would be a great book to read in general but especially around thanksgiving. Age:4+

Talks about a young girl trying to find out what her mother is most thankful for and she finds out that she is most thankful for her.
