Where's My Hug?

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sue Hellard. At school, Jake refuses a hug from Mom. When he asks for it later, he finds she has given it to Dad, who gave it to the cat, who gave it to a witch, etc. Finally, Jake retrieves his hug from a dragon. The comfy tale verges on too sweet, but amusing touches in the fantasy creature–filled watercolors have a mitigating effect.
