Product Description

Izzie just loves when her mama blows her kisses to catch. Smooch kisses, zig-zag kisses, and even triple decker kisses! But even though she runs and leaps for it, Izzie misses a kiss! Her heart sinks as she watches it zip higher and higher into the sky. When Mama lets Izzie in on a sweet secret, she realizes that her mama's love will always come to find her, no matter what! This silly and tender story is a universal one of a parent's love.

From School Library Journal

PreS-KMama blows three kisses to her daughter Izzie. The little girl catches the first two but misses the third. She is distraught until Mama explains that the kiss will always reach her. Izzie returns her mother's unconditional love with a hug. This edition is adapted from a 2016 title into a shorter board book format. The wordy text is meant to be shared between a parent and child; however, action words like "zoom" and exclamations like "got it!" stand out in large, stylized letters, prompting the child to take part in the story. The artwork employs soft outlines and a welcoming pastel pink and green palette. Mama and Izzie have large, expressive eyes. Mama's kisses not depicted is string_containing arellowing readers to use their imagination, just as they might when blown a kiss in real life. An absence of backgrounds gives the gentle pictures room to stand out against white space.

Review

...McLeod's delicate, fine-lined watercolors elevate it in depicting its loving mother-daughter pair with medium-brown skin, brown eyes, and ebullient brown curls (Izzie's a little bit more unruly than her mama's). Though nothing in the text points to specific ethnicity, in a sea of mother-love books featuring either white characters or cute, fuzzy animals, this twosome is a downright refreshing discovery. ...A sweet mother-daughter idyll that provides a mirror for any number of brown-skinned readers. (Picture book. 3-6) --Kirkus Reviews

...Affably written by Deborah Diesen and charmingly illustrated by Kris Aro McLeod, "Catch a Kiss" is a silly and tender universal story one of a parent's love for her daughter. Very highly recommended for children 5 to 7, "Catch a Kiss" would prove to be an enduringly popular and appreciated addition to family, preschool, elementary school, and community library picture book collections. It should be noted for parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents, that "Catch a Kiss" is also available in a Kindle edition. --Midwest Book Review
