APPEALS TO: MANY 

Doug the Slug wants a hug, but he can't find a single other bug who wants to hug him back. Even when the perfect bug seems to glide on by, it wasn't meant to be. Maybe Doug will never find some bug to love him. 

So super silly and fun! With a sweet ending of happiness for Doug and his new friend. Lots of adult-sized humans need to be reminded that one, two, or more rejections don't mean the end to finding love.
