The most huggable book a toddler will ever love from a master of picture-book artistry.
Bear has a cozy, fluffy cuddle; Elephant, a big, strong cuddle; even Porcupine has a careful, prickly cuddle. But Kitty's brother hugs the best! Follow along Kitty's journey and learn that there are many different ways to show affection, and all of them matter most when shared with others.
Jane Cabrera's picture books have received worldwide attention and two Oppenheim Toy Portfolio awards. Her incomparable style has made her books a must-have for parents, teachers, and librarians for over a decade.
"Exuberantly rendered in Cabrera’s signature bold, painterly style, the vibrantly colored full-bleed animals look almost touchable while bright, patterned backgrounds saturated with color make the hugging duos pop off the page. . . . Lap-sit readers will eagerly snuggle up for their own cuddles."—Kirkus Reviews
"This hits the mark for very young children on laps or in groups. . . . awfully cute."—Booklist
"Cabrera's trademark eye-catching, lush colors are used to full advantage on every page. . . . youngsters will be riveted by the bold pictures and find comfort in Kitty's predictable exploits."—School Library Journal
