Chester doesn't want to go to school, so his mother comforts him with the Kissing Hand.

This is a wonderful, gentle, reassuring book for young kids. My daughter is 8 and still likes to do Kissing Hands before school!

Ages 4-8 or so.

This is one of my all time favorites. Audrey Penn's story provides a simple but meaningful lesson for children to cope with separation from a loved one. A must for your young child's book shelf.
