Kisses for Daddy
By Frances Watts and David Legge
Honour Book in the 2006 Children's Book Council Book of the Year Awards (Early Childhood category)

“Now what about a big bear kiss for me?” said Dad.

“No!” said Baby Bear. “No kiss for Daddy.”

“Oh dear,” said Daddy, carrying Baby Bear up the stairs. “How about a koala kiss instead? Baby koalas give their daddies cuddly, clingy kisses, like this…”


When a grumbly Baby Bear refuses to give his father a goodnight kiss, their bedtime routine is transformed into a delightful game, as Daddy imagines all the different sorts of kisses that other animal babies give their dads.

About the author and illustrator
Sydney-based writer Frances Watts’s first book, This Dog Bruce, was published in October 2004.

David Legge’s Bamboozled was a runaway bestseller, as well as an Honour Book in the 1995 Children’s Book Council of Australia’s Book of the Year Awards, and winning children’s choice awards in six states! David’s whimsical humour and exuberant wit are evident in all his books, including Rise and Shine, Tom Goes to Kindergarten, and the 2004 CBCA shortlisted book, Baby Boomsticks.
