Illustrated by
Matt Phelan.
Wondering whether his mother loves him all the time, a boy peppers her with questions ("Do you love me when I eat all my peas? Do you love me when I don't?") Reassuringly, she replies in the affirmative ("No matter what you do...I'll always love you"). Watercolor illustrations with plenty of white space show the boy in the midst of good--and bad--behavior.
