As Walter and Mama gather blueberries for a pie, little Walter asks, over and over, “Who loves me?” Mama tells Walter how much Daddy, Grandma, and Grandpa love him. She tells him about how much his aunts and friends and pets love him, too. But, when the pie is ready, Walter knows the list cannot be complete. Who else loves him? Mama, of course! She loves him more than anything.
Praise
**STARRED REVIEW**— Publishers Weekly
"McPhail’s paintings hum with subdued familial warmth, young readers will readily recognize who Mama has “forgotten,” and human mothers will appreciate the gentle game she’s playing and the way that she (like so many moms) puts herself last."
"The text is straightforward, and the scratchy, warmly colored illustrations pull little readers right into the snuggly atmosphere."— Kirkus Reviews
