The Kissing Hand |
Penn, Audrey |
"This is a super sweet picture book about a raccoon who is
worried about leaving his mom and going off to school. She
shows him a secret that lets him know, all the time, that his Mommy
loves him. A nice book for kids starting off on new adventures
- whether kindergarten, nursery school, daycare, camp, or even just
staying with a babysitter. My daughter still gives me "the
kissing hand" from time to time, and ya know what? It
really works!" KathyO |
