This story follows a little girl who plants a kiss. She waters it and waits for it to sprout. Then it does sprout and she shows her friends. She decides she is going to share it everywhere despite her friends saying that she did not want to overuse her kisses assets. But she shares it everywhere she can, and by the end of the book her kiss is magnificently large. This is a fun book for children, and it sends a message of spreading happiness makes more happiness. Literally, children will find the idea of planting a kiss silly and funny. The illustrations are simple, but when her kiss sprouts the illustrations for it are wonderful. Her kiss almost looks like magic. There are very few words in this book, and young children and older children alike would enjoy hearing this at story time.
