A delightful story about a sweet "Who do you love" bedtime routine. This story might be a fun story to read before establishing that routine in your own family. Or even a "Who love me" routine.

Traditional, cliche, but effective.
By no means is the book a bad book. However, it is very traditional, cliche, and predictable. I enjoyed the color scheme, the animal focus on cats, and the story plot pointing and touching base on differing family members.
I added this book because though we as adults and teachers may not like certain books, it's important that we can still acknowledge the effectiveness and attractiveness of the book to different readers.

The little girl plays a goodnight game with her mom. The game she plays, she tells her mom who she loves and why she loves them and in the end she tells her mom why she loves her. This could be a good activity for mother's day or just to right why we love the people we love.
