Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
All children want reassurance that their parents' love runs wide and deep. In Guess How Much I Love You, a young rabbit named Little Nutbrown Hare thinks he's found a way to measure the boundaries of love. In a heartwarming twist on the "I-can-do-anything-you-can-do-better" theme, Little Nutbrown Hare goes through a series of declarations regarding the breadth of his love for Big Nutbrown Hare. But even when his feelings stretch as long as his arms, or as high as his hops, LittleNutbrown Hare is fondly one-upped by the elder rabbit's more expansive love.

Anita Jeram's illustrations are bound to elicit an "ah" from even the sternest of readers; these loving rabbits are expressive, endearing, and never cloying. In turn, Sam McBratney tells a simple bedtime story of sweet familial love with humour, insight, and a delightful surprise at the end. Children and parents will love snuggling up for this one--a treat to be read again and again, just before the lights are turned out. (Ages 4 to 8) --Amazon.com --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
Shortlisted for the 1994 Kurt Maschler Award and the Children's Illustrated Book of the Year Award, this is the story of Little Nutbrown Hare and Big Nutbrown Hare, who discover that love is not an easy thing to measure.

5.0 out of 5 stars If ever there was a book that deserves 5 stars, 5 Mar 2008
By Gisli Jokull Gislason "Jokull" (Iceland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
First let me tell you I am a father of 2 children. Secondly let me tell you that I am a police officer in his forties. Then let me tell you that the book still brings tears to my eyes when I read it (or in fact write this review).

I must confess that beautiful with a little sad does the trick and this book is one of the best childrens books ever written. It tells the story of the little Nut Brown Hare that is being put to sleep by the Big Nut Brown Hare and how the Little Nut Brown Hare is trying to express his/her love for the Big Nut Brown Hare, he/she loves him/her as much as he/she can streach his/her arms, jump high, run fast (there is no gender in the book, so it can be daughter/father, son/mother, big sister/little brother or any other combination) and yet the Big Nut Brown Hare always outdoes the Little Brown Hare by streaching further, jumping higher or running faster. But the end has a twist - such a sweet twist.

There is a lot of love in the book and children relate very well with it and understand the dilemma of the Little Brown Hare who is bursting to express his/her love for the Big Brown Hare. Both parent and child will feel a little more affectionate during and after the read.

The book is so simple in concept and perfect in execution. The pictures and story combine very well.

The book is perfect and worth every star.

5.0 out of 5 stars A special book to share with your baby, 4 April 2000
By A Customer
My daughter has enjoyed this book since she was a tiny baby. The wording is loving without being soppy, and has a good rhythym (so if you have to read it as often as I have you will soon know it off by heart). We follow the actions as the hares stretch their arms wide, and hop up and down, gradually relaxing as they snuggle down and go to sleep. I buy copies for my friends and they all love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Once read never forgotten!!, 13 Jan 2003
By A Customer
Ok, so it's a short simple story of two cute hares and how they try and articulate how much they love each other.

Sounds soppy? Think this book is just for babies and us girlies?
Wrong on both accounts!

Bought this for my ill partner (middle aged 'roughy toughy' male!!!) and read it to him when he was real poorly. I have never seen anyone smile and brighten up so much in all my life!

What more can I say? It's a 'feel good' book for adults and children alike.

You love someone? Just buy - you'll love it, they'll love, you'll both love it together!

Go on, give it a try!
