Sloppy Kisses

This is an adorable book by a great author. The theme & the illustrations are so well suited to children & parents alike. Love it.

is it ok to kiss your child good night?

You betcha! The story of Emmy Lou, a pig, who hates getting kissed goodnight by her parents, until they stop when she asks them to, and then.... Picture book with full color watercolor illustrations on every other page. So sweet. Very scarce. Highly recommended.

We love 'Sloppy Kisses'

I have purchased this book for five children in my life, it is the favorite of all. It's lesson is one of love and affection, and that it is ok to kiss your dad when everyone is looking.

One of the best childrens books available.

One of the best books available to show children you are never too old for kisses.

reassures all ages that your never to big for a kiss

My children have been raised as family members of the United States Marine Corps... Their Papa is gone quite a bit. This little story has had a special place in our hearts as the encouragement it has given for our children to continue to value affection from their Papa without embarrassement....Even at 3rd and 4th grade, at Millington Central Elementary School, they would kiss in the hallway as they took different routes to their own classes... it did not matter who looked or what they said because "kissing is for everybody"
