Nice illustrations, lots of forest animals in the winter. Cute, simple story.

This book is beautiful. I read it to little ones and they loved it.

Worthy Kids does such a grand job in publishing children's books that are absolutely delightful. Children and parents all enjoy them so much. As a grandmother I have come to trust them.

LOVE YOU SNOW MUCH by Melinda Lee Rathjen is so cheerful and uplifting. Delightful snowmen and critters, bright colorful illustrations by Megan Higgins, and sweet rhyming text that expounds the love of parent snowman for child snowman place this sweet board book in the group of must haves for children.

Puns, plays on words, rhymes. Bright colors. Cheerful characters and critters. So much to enjoy! Love it.

I received a copy via the Early Reviewers Program monthly contest on LibraryThing.com.

Another cute book of puns while telling a child how much they are loved, this one in a board book. Bright colorful illustrations full of winter scenes with rhyming prose make it a great bedtime story.½

Cute rhyming story about a snowman parent and child, and the animals they meet in the wintery woods where they live.

An adorable book that my 5-year-old daughter wanted to read over and over again. While adults will find the central pun a little obvious, it's a lot of fun for the little ones. The illustrations are engaging and the message is a great one. It's earned a permanent place on the bookshelf.

This is a decent child's book. Some of the words in it would betoo difficult for a child to read on their own. However, they would probably enjoy the book being read to them or even just looking at the pictures.

Who Loves You?

As the little bunny goes throughout his day enjoying a meadow full of flowers, playing lots of different games, and eating yummy food, he always hears, "somebunny loves you."

Who is it that snuggles with him, goes along with him, and swings him around?

Little ones will like all the demonstrations of love, along with the good feelings that come from them. This board book has beautiful, colorful illustrations that show how much they are cared for. While reading this story, ask your child if they can guess who loves them.

In the end, did they figure it out?

Children through age four will enjoy the rhyming words, story and pictures in the five-star, feel good, board book!

Thank you, Worthy Kids for providing Tickmenot with a book to review. Opinions are my own.

Perfect for toddlers who love trucks (or anything that moves), Wreck the Halls is a cute Christmastime preschool board book featuring a wrecker that helps celebrate the season. The colorful, cartoon-like illustrations by Gareth Williams are engaging, and Melinda Rathjen's rhyming text, with some challenging vocabulary, will amuse the reader. I can't wait to give this book to my great-grandson this coming Thanksgiving, when he'll be 19 months old - perfect age and time for him (and all of us, his family) to enjoy this book.

This board book was colorful, had cute illustrations, decent rhymes, and a sweet concept, but nothing within delighted me, it was just an okay book.

This is a fun Christmas themed board book. It is perfect for truck loving toddlers during the wintertime. Wreckers, the tow truck, goes around helping to get ready for the holidays. Other characters such as cranes, trains, police cars, semis, etc. are also in the book to help create a festive holiday narrative. The illustrations are festive and colorful. The board book is well constructed and will stand up to babies and toddlers handling the book.

I received this book as part of LibraryThing's Early Reviewer program. I should have paid closer attention to what I was requesting because I did not realize this was a Christian book. It is published by Worthy Kids, a Hachette Book Group imprint. After some digging around, because Worthy Kids does not disclose on their website or their Facebook page that they are focused on Christian books, I did find a press release from when they were purchased by Hachette that they signed Christian authors.

Some Bunny Loves Me mentions God and saying prayers. It is cute with cute illustrations.

This adorable board book is very bright and colorful with great illustrations. A simple read that brings a smile to your face. Somebunny Loves You, can you guess who?
Written for the pre-Kindergarten age, this book is easily readable for beginning readers. The book's first lines "Right from the start when you were new, you've had somebunny loving you." make this a perfect gift from a parent or grandparent.

This is a very cute Christmastime board book that will appeal especially to kids who love vehicles and wreckers in particular. The illustrations are well done in a familiar cartoony manner that young children will appreciate, and the rhyming text reads easily to tell the different jobs that are completed by the vehicles to prepare for Christmas.

A Wreckers Christmas!

Join the Wreckers as they have a good time celebrating Christmas. Fans of the Wreckers will be happy to see that they outshine all competition when it comes to carolers, gift wrapping, delivering and anything else associated with the season.

Children will smile and laugh when the bright illustrations show the Wreckers can carry lots of presents, and that the Wreckers are decorated for Christmas. This large chunky board book is fun, and lighthearted. Children through four-years-old will enjoy making merry with this five-star book!

Worthy Kids has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, Wreck the Halls, for the purpose of review.

This is an adorable, heartwarming story that helps parents or caregivers describe how much their children are loved. With words that rhyme and colorful, bright pictures, this is sure to be a favorite at story time.

The pages are thick and sturdy and would be great for children ages Birth through 5 years old.

This is a cute board book with a racoon family enjoying s'mores and telling each other back and forth, "I love you s'more". The artwork is colorful and the sentiment is sweet. It's fine but the text is so repetitive that the humor is lost after a few pages. Also, the chocolate around their mouths is a bit odd.½

What a fun book for young children! A play on "Love You More", the competitive raccoons are fireside and compete to find out who loves who "S'more". Great puns and rhyming. My youngest really loved the book and has asked to read it multiple times. Fun and vivid illustrations.

Adorable! This is a fun book to read aloud because of the flow of the rhyme. The illustrations are cute as well. Incredibly special for a mother to read to her children. Also love the play on words with the s'more idea.

This is a very cute book to read to the very young. Perfect for a campout with Smores. The story features raccoons who argue about who loves whom "smore" and features rhyming text. The book makes a nice addition readalouds, especially with an outdoors theme.

Our favorite reply to I love you, “love you more” teams up with our favorite campfire treat S’mores in this delightful Board Book for the very young.
An adult and baby raccoon are around the evening campfire toasting marshmallows and talking about chocolate and graham crackers that make up s’mores and all the ways love can be expressed and shared.
Lots of play on words and puns keep the dialog moving . Perfect read aloud and a perfect excuse to make s’mores and read the book together.
Read as an ARC from LibraryThing.

Very cute, super easy read. The story is about a competition to see who Love You S'more. This would make a wonderful gift for a beloved child or grandchild. The drawings are large and colorful and add greatly to the story.

This is a cute competition between two raccoons who attempt to outdo each other in expressions of love until they realize that "nobody's winning this contest." It's a light, enjoyable board book penned by Melinda Lee Rathjen illuminated with adorable illustrations by Rob McClurkan.

Thanks very much to @worthykidsbooks for the review copy through the #LibraryThing giveaway program.

Wonderfully illustrated book that I oved reading this to my children before bed.
