'I need a hug. Will you cuddle me, Lou?'
'What? With those spikes? Get away from me! Shoo!'
All the little porcupine wants is a hug. But with such prickly spikes,
will she ever get the cuddle she craves?
A truly adorable tale from the award-winning creator of PIG THE PUG
and THELMA THE UNICORN.
The premise is cute on a first read and the pictures are evocative, but the rhyming is very forced. I also agree with other readers that the book *could* send the message that refusing to hug someone is "mean," when we should be teaching kids they have the right not to hug people and should not be guilted into hugging people.
