Kiss It Better

(4) PS Illustrated by Sarah Massini. A bear family shows all the ways a kiss can make everything better, whether it's bumps and scrapes, bruised feelings, or scary thunderstorms ("If thunderstorms wake you up with a fright, / a sweet-dreams kiss keeps you safe through the night"). The rhyming text has a pleasant rhythm; the mixed-media illustrations are expressive if saccharine, with hearts representing kisses flooding the pages.
