Ask any seasoned mom how quickly her child(ren) have grown and gone and the likely response is, “In the blink of an eye.” With easy to navigate narration and beautiful illustrations, this darling picture book reminds us how fast time whizzes by as it gently encourages mothers to cherish each moment with their little ones.

Evocative and eloquent, this is a touching story about a mother and daughter and their mutual love and joy as they discover and share important milestones. Each page takes readers through treasured moments and memories, highlighting the dual joys of motherhood and childhood. It’s a charming book that captures special memories and moment between a mother and her daughter. These include first words and first steps. Blowing out a first-year birthday candle. Playing at the beach. Also adventures such as losing a first tooth and riding a pony.

As the mother of four, I love the way Forever and Always celebrates every day moments like watching fireworks in the night sky together or splashing at the beach. It would make a great baby shower or new mom gift. Ditto a Mother’s Day gift. It would make an excellent choice for new moms and young daughters to read together.

Heartwarming and heartfelt, Forever and Always By Your Side may cause moms young and old to pause and smile or sigh as they either look forward to their child’s growth and development or look back over the years. When the text muses, “I wish I could stop time,” many moms will relate.

Saturated with warmth and love, this sweet picture book is reminiscent of other children’s classics such as Robert Munsch’s Love You Forever and Margaret Wise Brown’s Goodnight Moon and The Runaway Bunny. I recommend it to anyone want to celebrating the beauty and challenges of motherhood. Well done!

My rating: 4.5

"Forever and Always By Your Side is a heartwarming picture book that beautifully captures the tender moments between a mother and her daughter. Fei Zheng-Ward weaves a sweet and moving narrative highlighting the small, everyday milestones that form the foundation of a lasting bond. The book highlights the tender memories of first smiles, first steps, losing the first tooth, and all the moments every parent cherishes.

Forever and Always By Your Side is beautifully narrated. It poignantly reminds parents of all the first moments in a child's life—the moments we capture in our minds and hearts that remain forever. It's a perfect book for evoking parents' deep, nostalgic feelings as their children grow up. The emphasis on creativity and celebration of growth makes this book ideal for encouraging children to appreciate the little joys in life. Sometimes, we forget the significance of a tiny milestone, even though it shapes who we are and who we become. Fei Zheng-Ward invites mothers and daughters to read and relive their shared moments, making it ideal for family bonding time. Forever and Always By Your Side is the perfect choice if you're looking for a sweet, easy read that emphasizes love, creativity, and growing up. The story so eloquently puts into words what we sometimes find difficult to express. It's a book that mothers and daughters will cherish and pass down through the generations. It's a wonderful book to read together throughout the years and is worthy of more than five stars. I highly recommend it." --Readers' Favorite

Celebrating the unbreakable bond between mother and daughter

Forever and Always By Your Side is a touching story about a mother and daughter's love for each other. It shows how beautiful life can be in the smallest, most important moments. From the daughter's first smile to her first steps and the joy of seeing her grow, the book beautifully shows how each shared experience makes their bond stronger.

People who read the book will enjoy seeing how happy the mother is as her daughter says her first words, walks for the first time, and looks around with wide eyes. Every page is filled with love and respect, from fun days at the beach to magical nights watching fireworks.

One particularly touching moment is the lighthearted "potty time" page, a playful reminder of the humorous milestones that mothers treasure, no matter how small. Another standout page is the one that focuses on joy—capturing the daughter’s pure, creative spirit as she expresses herself through artwork and imaginative performances.

These sweet pages tell us of the little things moms do that mean a lot, even if they don't seem important. It's a great book for moms and girls to read together because it's full of love, gratitude, and the magic that can be found in everyday things.

Beautiful

This is a very beautiful story that follows the love and care that parents of every nationality, race, and age feel for their children. The author does a beautiful job of illustrating as well as textually explaining the vast array of emotions that we as parents have when we have a small child. The book starts as a baby is born and progresses through different families and different childhood experiences. The author has illustrated from the parents point of view the feelings of pride and joy that we have watching our children grow and flourish. I could not recommend this book more! You will not be disappointed in picking up a copy today!!

This engaging book that moms can read with their daughters covers many of the important life-events that they share (or will share) together. The book demonstrates the joy mothers feel by participating in these rites of passage and how undertaking these adventures together with their girls can be an encouragement for the scarier times, such as doctor appointments or their first bike ride. I also enjoyed how the illustrations included families of different ethnicities which teaches young ones the wonderful things they have in common with others...such as...awesome moms.

A story to treasure on National Daughter’s Day

It’s apt that I read this story today, on National Daughter’s Day! The sweet story is a reminder of how time flies and an inspiration to enjoy every moment that we spend with our children and not rush the time. I really like the diversity of races and abilities that the illustrations depict. The book would make a nice gift for new families.
