Bookroo's summary
A curious child wonders if a mother's love can withstand the wildest transformations—from a smelly skunk to a fierce dinosaur. Each question tests the limits of her devotion, but her love remains unwavering. Will the child find a creature too monstrous for love, or is a mother's affection truly boundless? Discover the heartwarming answers in this delightful bedtime tale.
From the publisher
A vividly illustrated bedtime story that shows how the unconditional love of a mother can be tested through the relentless questions of her little boy.
“But Mama, but Mama, what if I were a super smelly skunk, and I smelled so bad that my name was Stinky Face?”
Mothers love their children and this unconditional love is truly tested in I Love You, Stinky Face. Lisa McCourt and Cyd Moore beautifully weave a reassuring tale of the love and affection of a parent. The imaginative son turns himself into a meat-eating dinosaur, a swamp creature and much, much more before being satisfied with the fact that no matter how stinky he is or how slimy of a creature he could possibly be, he is loved and nothing will change that.
