"Spring has arrived. For those with toddlers in their lives, this book will make a nice surprise gift that underscores the prominent concept of love this time of year." –New York Journal of Books
One of NorthSouth’s bestselling titles—sweet as a kiss—tells the story of a puppy named Hugs and his discovery that the best love of all comes from his mother.
A puppy named “Hugs” decides to visit each animal on the farm to find out which animal gives the best kiss. From duck, to rabbit, to butterfly, and pig and horse, he goes. All are happy to oblige. The pup discovers the horse’s kiss is a little wet and sticky, but nice and warm. The rabbit’s kiss is a little wiggly, but quite soft. Who will have the best kiss? He collects lots of wonderful nuzzles, but when he returns home, he discovers that the best kiss of all is the one he gets from his loving mother.

Fans of Weninger's series about the rabbit Davy will recognize illustrator Tharlet's expressive style, even though her character this time is a puppy, Hugs. With fur that seems real enough to touch, a sunny disposition, and sweet manners, Hugs is a real charmer.
Booklist
Rare is the child, parent, or older sibling who will be able to resist this invitation to mix reading with kissing.
