A goodnight kiss is explained to be a wish for tomorrow. The child is wished adventure and bravery in nature. They are also wished lessons that they can hold on to forever.
My favorite line was a wish that the kid would “always know which risks are worth the courage they take.” The books is a little sentimental, but soothing and inspiring. The illustrations are all bright and you can clearly see the texture of oil paint in each one.
