Goose Needs a Hug by Tad Hills

OK, I'll admit it.  This author has stolen my heart.  His children's books are just wonderful and his illustrations are so cute they could make you cry.  I really admire his work.  This story is no exception.

Schwartz & Wade sent me a copy of this book for review (thank you).  It has been published and would be a nice Easter gift or a good gift for someone who need some love shown in a hug.

Hugs are powerful stuff.  They can restore our faith in ourselves, help heal skinned knees, share grief, and just plain comfort you.  I think we need more hugs in the world.

Duck is feeling sad and he needs a hug.  The other animals are offering all kinds of games and fun things to do, but he won't do them.  Finally they ask him what he needs and he gets a group hug.  What could be better?

Why not share this sweet book with your little one?  Be sure to give them a hug when they are done reading it.  Everybody needs a hug.

Happy reading.
