It's bedtime in this storybook, and one little boy thinks he's too big for Mama kisses and Papa hugs. His parents convince him that he's never too big for them and share ways that animals give hugs and kisses to their children. My favorite part of the book is when it talks about how God gives us hugs and kisses with daily reminders of His love and care for us. This book has more text than some of her earlier books, but it's perfect for my seven year old son, who (thankfully) doesn't think he's too big for kisses and hugs yet. We had fun teasing about giving him wet, slobbery licks and practicing horse nuzzles and turtle hugs.
This really is a perfect bedtime story that not only helps with parent/child bonding, but also serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness and His loving care. We love it and definitely recommend it. It gets 6 thumbs-ups, two each from my husband, myself, and my son.
