Plant a Kiss

(3) PS Illustrated by Peter H. Reynolds. Little Miss plants a kiss, tends to it properly, then waits: "Doubt. / Pout. / Sprout! / SHOUT! SHOUT!" The single kiss blooms as pink and yellow sparkles that she spreads and shares with a diverse cast of other children; it turns out to be "endless bliss." The simple rhyming text is delightfully spare--as are Reynolds's miniscule, glitter-embellished pictures.
