I love books that give me another reason to give my son kisses. The rhyming was a big hit with Will, who surprised us by saying the rhyming words at the end of each sentence.
His favourite page "A playful kiss will often squeak/ and make a POP! upon your cheek" always results in giggles.
It is a fun read and cuddle inducing.

Cute book, a bit long for storytime.

Cute, would be a little awkward for storytime, I don't want to spend that much time reading about kissing! LOL.

A very simple book, Won't You Be My Kissaroo shows all the different kinds of a love a mother has for her child. A very nice story. :)

Rhyming couplets on each page describe different reasons for giving and receiving hugs. Definitely for the younger crowd! Appropriate but not outstanding for the story time crowd.

I read this book in Baby Laptime and Baby Toddler Time and it's a hit! There are chances to share kisses and do things like tickle or wave hello.

I'm giving it 3 stars for being repetitive, but it's a nice one to add to my rotation.

We really like this book at our house, it is cute and fun. It also gives us an excuse to plant extra kisses on the little ones.
