This quickly has become my 3 year old sons favorite book. My 5 year old loves it too. It’s absolutely adorable. We got it for Valentine’s Day but it’s not a holiday book. Small size which I appreciate, great for small hands & we accumulate a lot of books!

My kids absolute love this book. It’s one of our favorite Valentine’s Day books. We keep it on display and it’s the first one my kids pick up to read. It’s a fun short read kids of all ages will love.

In the illustrations, it appears that quite a few of the characters don’t want the little boy to be hugging them, but he does anyway, without asking first. This does not align with what I want to teach my son about consent. I especially don’t like the line “No one escapes the hug machine.” Yikes.

This book is our goto for sharing! My 5yo and 3yo recite this book with a level of enthusiasm that’s simply heartwarming. Scott Campbell won us over with this one and he’ll do the same for you!!
