Description

Zou is preparing to leave for a school camp. He doesn't want to seem like a baby, but he knows that he will miss all his daily kisses: the bedtime kisses, the morning kisses, the no-reason-at-all kisses ... But Zou needn't worry. Mum and Dad have a solution. They make dozens of paper kisses and put them in a box for Zou to use whenever he feels a bit lonely. But the box of kisses comes in surprisingly useful on the train ...

Reviews

" The author's soft-coloured illustrations stand out on the white pages, drawing attention to the expressive Zou. A heart-warming story." -- The Weekend Sun (AU) "But Zou isn't the only young zebra on the bus struggling with separation anxiety, and what unfolds is a wonderfully warm story that never fails to make Syd smile." -- The Weekend Australia (AU) "A truly special picture book. It's the story of Zou the Zebra as he spends his first night away from his parents. Both endearing and reassuring for [parent] and child this is a wonderful book to read aloud" -- Love Reading 4 Kids (UK) " The author's soft-coloured illustrations stand out on the white pages, drawing attention to the expressive Zou.
