I discovered Hugless Douglas a couple years ago merely by accident. It was on a display and, at the time, I had a coworker named Doug. It looked cute so I picked it up and read it. I just loved it. Douglas is a young bear who wakes up from hibernation in need of a hug. He spend the day trying to find the perfect one. He hugs rocks, trees, leaves, and various animals. They are all too hard, too tall, too wrong. All he wants is a hug, but he just can't find the right one. A sympathetic rabbit takes him to look for the elusive hug he seeks. At last they find another cave where someone is waking up, Douglas' mom. She provides the perfect hug he so desperately needs. The illustrations are adorable and the story is quite fun. At one time or another we have all needed a hug. This book reminds us how the right hug can make all the difference. It is a really cute book. Find it, read it, enjoy it. Happy reading!
