Eftychis sells kisses in jars. He grew up in a very loving family. But not everyone is so lucky, so he decided to open a shop and share the kisses he had collected with anyone who needed them.
The Goodnight Kiss, which goes with a mother’s lullaby, is in great demand.
The Temperature-Checking Kiss is the most popular with dads—because, as everyone knows, only mothers can tell if a child has a fever simply by pressing their lips to the child’s forehead.
The Kiss-It-Better Kiss soothes every ache, wound, bruise or scratch.
There are kisses for every occasion: Comforting Kisses, Grandma’s Whirling Kisses and many more... except one!

The beauty of love and solidarity in a children’s book with a simple yet universal message.
The creator of the story shares:
“The Little Love Shop is a story that came to life at a time when physical contact was forbidden and the requirement to keep a safe distance meant we had to save our kisses for another, better moment—a moment that took two years to arrive. During those two years, I realised the priceless value of kisses...”
