(4) PS Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Eve Tharlet. Determined to find something out, Hugs the puppy asks various animals to give him a kiss. He discovers that a duck's kiss is hard but refreshing, a pig's is muddy but tender, and a butterfly's is tickly but wonderful. When he gets home, however, he realizes his mother's kiss is the best of all. Soft, blurred watercolors give Hugs added personality in this somewhat sentimental but sweet story.
