In I Need a Hug, a tiny porcupine just wants a cuddle. All of the other animals turn him away because of his prickly spikes. But finally the porcupine meets an animal who's happy to hug -- a snake! Rich with author-illustrator Aaron Blabey's signature rhyming text and unforgettab...ly splendid illustrations, I Need a Hug is a sweet story about friendship and learning not to judge a book by its cover.
