Oh my, I don't know how anyone survives that :sad: now I want to cry </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-real-story-behind-love-you-forever-book#post-1505710 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 20:03:16 +0000 mrsbookworm 1505710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh. I always avoided reading this one because I found it disturbing. Now, I'll probably avoid reading it so I won't cry! Guess LO is stuck with Paper Bag Princess... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-real-story-behind-love-you-forever-book#post-1505666 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 19:45:53 +0000 Foodnerd81 1505666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's my favorite Robert Munsch book and this makes me like it more-- though I got teary reading it before I even had a LO or read the story behind it. Come to think of it I don't think I have this one-- have to fix that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-real-story-behind-love-you-forever-book#post-1505658 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 19:38:48 +0000 Dandelion 1505658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh wow.

How devastating. I can't read this book to my LOs...I've tried and it just ends with tears all over their poor little heads lol. I made the mistake of mentioning that fact to my MIL in front of my college aged BIL. Now out of nowhere he'll start reciting it to try to make me cry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-real-story-behind-love-you-forever-book#post-1505366 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:34:15 +0000 pinkcupcake 1505366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh geez , now I love it more.

Gonna tell him about it so he can't say that anymore! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-real-story-behind-love-you-forever-book#post-1505354 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:26:51 +0000 septca 1505354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's a terrible and sad story, but I have to say that I still find the book totally creepy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-real-story-behind-love-you-forever-book#post-1505342 Wed, 19 Mar 2014 17:22:16 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1505342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never read this book, but might just have to get it.

It made me view it completely differently and now I REALLY can't read it without crying. Short version: The book started as a song to the two stillborn babies he and his wife had. </p> <p>Here's the explanation from his website:<br /> <a href="http://robertmunsch.com/book/love-you-forever" rel="nofollow">http://robertmunsch.com/book/love-you-forever</a></p> <p>I told DH this because he thinks the story is kind of creepy, and now he totally can't make fun of it anymore. Bam. Lawyered. </p>
