Hug, Mommy, Bobo”
“Although the "Hug" part of it is cute....that was ALL there was in the book. Nothing else of substance.
The very young child might enjoy it.”

Bobo, the main character, sees all the animals in the forest sharing cozy-looking hugs, and then he realizes he would like a hug too, so he sets off looking for a hug, with all the animals to help him try and find one.
There are no words except for "hug" (it's like Goodnight Gorilla) and it's a great opportunity to get a hug in at each turn of the page. But you can also make up your own narrative each time you tell the story.
This is one of my daughter's favourites. She calls it "Bobo". ”
