Kissy is a heart-shaped gummy who is very friendly and affectionate. She loves to be physically affectionate with her friends. She touches their earrings and hair, tickles them, gives squishy hugs, and plants wet kisses. This physical affection makes her friends Claire, Donna, Boba, and Taco feel uncomfortable. They tell her that they would like her to ask permission before touching, tickling, hugging, or kissing. When Kissy starts asking permission, she realizes that her friends don't want all this physical affection. So, Kissy finds other ways to show affection, like giving compliments, waving, giving high fives, and blowing kisses. Her friends appreciate these different ways of showing affection. At the end of the story, readers are given examples of what to do if they experience touching that makes them feel uncomfortable.
Ideal for children aged 4-8. All (100%) royalties go directly to BC Children's Hospital.
