AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
A little boy is wondering who gives the very best hugs, not too tight, cozy, and warm that fit you just right. He receives hugs and kisses from a variety of animals, including a walrus (who seems a bit grouchy), a skunk, a hedgehog, a bear, meerkats, and monkeys. The boy even has seahorse smooches, narwhal nuzzles, penguin pecks, and rhino wrestles. Some just are not the just right, not too tight, but warm and cozy hugs he is wondering about. Finally, after a menagerie of animals hugs and kisses, the little boy finds the just right hug.
Illustrations in The Very Best Hug are colorful and adorable. Young readers will love to see each animal and how the animal is portrayed as the hugger! The text rhymes on some pages and the alliteration is perfect for children learning to read. The Very Best Hug is a book children will read over and over, thoroughly enjoying each illustration and the silly rhymes and text. A charming and silly book, a great gift for expectant parents, daycares, and early elementary. Characters are Caucasian.
