Illustrated by
Molly Bang.
When Leo shouts, "I hate you!" mother and son are both upset. Mom explains that words can be hurtful, then reassures Leo that she still loves him. With the help of a little humor, peace is restored. Harris offers a sensitive, realistic portrayal of family life. Bang's digital cut-paper and collage illustrations, complete with dramatic lettering, skillfully reflect the emotions involved.
