Children's Book Review
"Rumpus, Kiss it better"



( Children's book review of Jillian Harker's "Rumpus, Kiss it better" by Helena, mother of 5 and grandmother of 2)

Is there a child alive who hasn’t had a mother “kiss it better” when an owie happens?! Rumpus is a totally charming tale of a rambunctious little bear who needs a lot of boo-boos kissed better by his mother. Later he gets to turn the tables on his mother and be the kisser!

A great kids' story to read aloud to twos and up, a fun story for early readers to sound out on their own and my 10-year-old and I still enjoy reading it together once in a while.

26 pages of text and pictures, with text being about 20 to 30 words per 2-page spread.
