Plant a Kiss by Amy Krouse

We are big fans of Amy Krouse’s books and this one is no exception. This is the story of Little Miss who planted a kiss, and the small act of love grows and blossoms into something much bigger and more meaningful than she could ever have imagined.

Never Too Little To Love by Jeanne Willis and Jan Fearnley

This is very sweet tale about a lovable little mouse who aims very high for a kiss from someone he loves. He tries everything he can think of to reach his beloved – perhaps standing on a thimble? or a matchbox on a thimble? The cut-away pages show how precariously high he tries to reach until he falls with a great big crash. But have no fear, the story has a lovely ending.
