This is a review for the children’s book My Daddy Loves Me: I’m His Little Boy Written by Shanalee Sharboneau and Illustrated by Israel Dilean in exchange for this review.
Like Charlie I never had to doubt if my dad loved me or not. But there is children throughout the world who wonder if there father loves them. Which is why “My Daddy Loves Me: I’m His Little Boy” will help answer this question. Remind children of the things there dad does for them that shows how much he loves them even if he doesn’t say “I Love Your Out loud”.
As we read through the book it was fun to discuss the things the little boy and his father did. As well as discuss which of these activities Charlie has done with his own Father. Charlie kept telling me how much he liked the cover of the book with the Horses and the colors they used.
About:
Internationally and Nationally awarded book series “My Family Loves Me”, created by Shanalee Sharboneau strengthens the bond between a father and son. “My Daddy Loves Me: I’m His Little Boy” delivers adventure through the gorgeous illustrations by Israel Dilean showing the imaginative journeys of a father and son studying animal bones in Egypt, swimming in the ocean among sting rays and bathing in an African pond. The illustrations and words show the beautiful bond between a father and son in surroundings such as fishing under a sunset and camping under the stars as cowboys.
Charlie thought the crest inside the book was a awesome touch and were going to create our own Crest for not only our home but our homeschool in our homeschool art class. Would you like to join us and create a crest of your own? Come on it’s going to be fun.
I love how they even mention a Bible Verse we can look up and study in our Homeschool Music Class. Charlie and I can’t wait to check out more of the books in the series. As well as the song mentioned in the book. Which we will play in our Music Class. Would you like to come listen to the song?
About Shanalee Sharboneau

Shanalee Sharboneau spent most of her life in Texas. With immigrant Irish Grandparents, growing up she heard tales of Vikings, castles, leprechauns and banshees. Shanalee originates from the McAuliffe family in which you will see her crest throughout her books.
When Shanalee’s son Braydon was born in 2010, he had severe reflux. She and her husband, Perry, spent the first 6 months with their son on a 24/7 vigilant watch to make sure his condition did not bring him back to Heaven.
Shanalee spent countless hours rocking her son all hours of the day and night humming nursery tunes to calm him. None of them worked, until she began to hum a melody which later formed words. These words turned into lyrics, lyrics turned into verses, and the verses became the beautiful lullaby she sang to her newborn son entitled “My Mama Loves Me”.
After Braydon’s reflux went away, Shanalee wrote down all the melodies to the lullaby so she would not forget the loving song she once sang to her infant son over and over again to calm him in his time of need. This became the book “My Mama Loves Me: I’m Her Little Boy” in her upcoming children’s series “My Family Loves Me”.
Shanalee’s books are sold online all over the world, including Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Austria, Africa, Russia, Germany, Japan, China, Mexico, Spain, Italy and France.
