So, the raccoon mother told him a secret about the "magic kiss".

From "exclusive" to "sharing"...
With so many changes, not to mention the children, even adults have to adapt for a while.
For example, when I’m at work, I’m worried about my children at school, afraid that something might happen to them…

A 30-year-old bestseller, dedicated to everyone, young or old, who needs love .<br /> Author Audrey Paine, faced her own separation anxiety when her four-year-old daughter was about to enter kindergarten. By chance, she saw a mother raccoon leave home to forage for food. When separated from her cub, she took the cub's hand, rubbed her cheek, and let him smell her scent. This unique animal behavior inspired the author, who replicated the method with her own daughter, and it worked wonders. She then wrote this story to share this magic of love with parents everywhere.
