Mom's Hugs and Kisses, by Christophe Loupy (author), Eve Tharlet (Illustrations)

 

Publication March 14, 2023

Ahh, sweet. That's a term I find myself overusing for some children's books but, well, it's true. I even gave my own dog a kiss on the nose after finishing. With simple, soft colored illustrations and a cute story of a puppy named Hugs' goal of discovering who gives the best kisses, it's a story one can envision being read in households worldwide with both adults and children cooing over the drawings as they are shared. Nothing fancy about the story, of course, as Hugs visits several different critters and asks for a kiss. Upon his return home, Hugs discovers, no surprise, that his mama's kisses are the best. A charming, simple tale that emphasizes the love of family. Thanks to #NetGalley and #NorthSouthBooks for sharing this sweet, ahh moment with me.
