Tu eres mi te quiero, You Are My I Love You

Maryann Cusimano Love has been working with children since she was a teen—as a clown, storyteller, singer, puppeteer, and caregiver. Her You Are My . . . books arose out of her work with children. In addition to writing children’s books, she is a much sought-after speaker who once addressed the United Nations, by invitation of the Vatican, on the role of religion and peace in modern societies. Dr. Cusimano Love lives on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland with her husband, Rich, and their three children, Maria, Ricky, and Ava Rose. You can visit Maryann Cusimano Love at MaryannLove.com.

"The rhythmic and lyrical text of this beautifully illustrated picture book explores the special connections between a parent and child...The joy and movement of running, spinning, splashing, and hugging are all captured in a warm and lighthearted manner.  An appealing choice for bedtime sharing." -School Library Journal
