It functions as a personalized anchor, providing a sense of 'who belongs to whom' during the formative years where identity is closely tied to family bonds. The book uses a rhythmic, repetitive structure to list the many people who love a child named Ryder, from parents to grandparents. This repetition creates a soothing cadence that is ideal for bedtime or as a calming ritual.
