Plant a Kiss | February 29, 2012

by Amy Krouse Rosenthal illustrated by Peter Reynolds (HarperCollins, Dec. 2011)

This book takes a more fantastical approach to the subject of gardening. Little Miss plants a kiss and waits for the magic to happen. Minimal text (“Doubt. Pout. Sprout! SHOUT!”) adds just enough to Peter Reynolds’ already-expressive characters. The glitter that sprouts throughout the interior when Little Miss’ kiss blooms is sure to be a hit with any young child.
