"McBratney's text is perfect. The balance is just right and Ivan Bates' illustrations are wonderful. All in all a delightful book for sharing one to one. Another winner." The Bookseller

About the Author:

Sam McBratney is the author of the best-selling and enormously popular picture book GUESS HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU, illustrated by Anita Jeram, which was a PARENTING Reading Magic Award winner, a CHILD Best Children's Book, and an American Library Association Notable Children's Book, in addition to receiving many other awards and honors. He says, "I told my children stories when they were young, so when I write, I try to think of what they would have liked."

Ivan Bates debuted as an illustrator with his art for Sam McBratney's THE DARK AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS, which Booklist, in a starred review, called "appealing" and PUBLISHERS WEEKLY deemed "endearing." Of JUST YOU AND ME, he says, "I had to spend a lot of time with geese. It was rather like guerrilla warfare. I had to stay well away from them, hiding in the bushes, or they would hiss at me. I had to take my photographs with a very long lens."
