Counting Kisses by Karen Katz is a sweet and fun book. It's a simple story about a family figuring out how many kisses it takes to get a tired baby to sleep. The illustrations are bright and cheerful, so babies love to look at it. Each page has a row of hearts to count and "kiss" which makes it fun to teach older ones to count.
Karen Katz was inspired to write children's books after she and her husband adopted a baby. In 2002, she received the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award for this book.
