Kisses for Mommy!

This is a short, sweet, solidly made little board book that shows mommies, and in two cases grandmother's, snuggling and kissing their darlings. The large colorful pictures are attractive to babies and younger toddlers and the simple poem should be easy for them to recognize and appreciate. An example of text follows so you can judge for yourself: Kisses for Mommy when you wake. Kisses for Mommy are sweet as cake. Kisses for Grandma she's a mommy, too! Kisses for Mommy say I love you. Four Stars. [B-] Large attractive pictures. Simple poem format. Suitable for night time reading as the last pages discuss 'lights out' and 'good night'.

I thought this book was kind of silly and not all that great but my son loves it. He likes looking at the pictures of the babies with their mommies and the rhyming text is a hit. I think he also likes the repitition of the word "mommy" which he is just beginning to learn. I would recommend this one and "Giggles with Daddy."
