Congratulations!
Your title, I Love You All the Time, has been named as one
of three finalists in the 2004 Benjamin Franklin Awards
competition, in the following category: Book of the Year
for Excellence & Innovation in Marketing (Budgets under
$10,000). Terry Nathan, Director, Publishers Marketing
Association
A category
manager from Indigo Books & Music told
me his kids bring him ILYATT every night and that he loves
the book because it says exactly how he feels about them.
Especially because he travels so much. (This gentleman discovered
us at BEA and has since offered to present ILYATT to
the children's category manager. Samples shipped June 30.)
The
editor of AARP magazine was drawn to our
BEA booth because she has ILYATT and wanted to tell us how
much she enjoys sharing it with her grandchildren.
"A
charming timeless book for kids and adults. A classic bedtime
favorite, I Love You All The Time can be read again and
again. It's replaced Goodnight Moon as my kids favorite."
Lisa Earle McLeod, Columnist and author of
Forget Perfect (Penguin/Putnam), and mother of two
Jennifer,
I just wanted to let you know that we received the book
that you sent to us. It is such a wonderful book. My son
read it to me and he even said "that sounds like daddy".
My son has read it over and over. He absolutely loves the
book. Thank you for writing such a wonderful book. I can't
believe that the distributor does not want to sell it at
PX/BX's. It would be such a great book for children, especially
with so many parents getting deployed these days. Thank
you again for sending the book and summing everything up
so well. Take Care, Kathy Coles (Ann Arbor,
Michigan)
"By the way, ILYATT passed the "Xandar Test".
It's become one of his top picks his bedtime stories. The
package IS right. There is also a lot in the pictures to
entice discussion and that is always a good thing. Ending
w/the Bear going to sleep is perfect for Mom's that are
reading the 5th story of the night"....a category
buyer for a national distributor
Jennifer,
Thank you so much for this note, and all your advice. It
is very much appreciated. My friends and I are happy to
contribute to your book sales. It's a shame the bigger publishing
houses haven't caught on...children and adults love this
book (ILYATT)! I will definitely keep you in mind if my
book is not published within a year. Many thanks. Kind regards,
Inna Feldman-Gerber, Chicago, IL

Reviewer: J.T. Cooper (see more about me) from Marietta,
GA USA As a book reviewer for Funseeker's Radio Network
I get a lot of children's books. This book is a simple and
delightful way of telling your children that you love them,
even when you are busy with other things. I recommend it
highly, particularly for children under seven years of age.
It can also convey love for a spouse as I told my teddy
bear collector wife. She loved it too! J. Tom Cooper,
Entertainment and Book Review Editor, Funseeker's Network
Jennifer,
I was so delighted to find your book I Love You All The
Time amid the hundreds of books I browsed at the local bookstore.
I found it to be positive, well put together and easy for
my 3-year old to understand. Thanks for a great book!!----Gina
