A Hug Is for Holding Me

(3) PS Illustrated by Lisk Feng. A father and daughter connect the natural world with their affection for each another in this cozy, rhyming picture book. Saturated, rosy-toned illustrations of whimsical nature scenes--such as eggs holding hatchlings "warm and snug" and the "strong yet gentle" hug of a cocoon--alternate with images of the stylized protagonists sharing sweet moments outdoors. A succinct, tender, and visually appealing read.
