Who do you love the best? asks Julian, one of mama's young boys. "I love you the reddest" she answers. "I love you bluest," she says to Max, Julian's brother. Together she loves both "the purplest."

This delightful story by Barbara M. Joosse celebrates siblings' very special individual qualities and the unique love a mother has for each of her children. The theme is especially appealing to multiples, who all, at one time or another, ask the question "Who do you love the best?"

A read-aloud story for children ages 3 through 8, I Love You the Purplest is wonderfully illustrated by Mary Whyte with soft watercolors.
