Just Because
You're Mine
by
Sally Lloyd-Jones
Illustrated by Frank
Endersby
Little Red Squirrel spends
the day with his father,
climbing and jumping and
playing in the woods. With
every activity, Little Red
Squirrel asks his father if
this is why his father loves
him. While reaffirming
all the good qualities in his
son, the father squirrel tells
his son that he is not loved
for what he does or is.
At the end, the father tells
his son exactly why he loves
his son.
JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE MINE is a
story about a parent's
unconditional love for his
child. The expressive,
energetic and adorable
illustrations add wonderful
dimensions to the story.
JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE MINE would
make a wonderful resource for
teachers on Valentine's Day as
well as a birthday present to
give to your child.
Also, for adults who enjoy the
magic of children's books, if
your dad is one of those
impossible dads to shop for,
JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE MINE would
make a heartfelt choice to
give your father for his
birthday or Father's Day.
