This cutesy but entertaining guide to hugs includes judicious bits of advice: don't "hold on too long," be patient with someone who's angry, be prepared for a return hug when you give one, and, climactically, "...open your heart. / Then open your arms." Digitally rendered illustrations flesh out the spare text with smiley animals and children giving each other hugs.
