Don't Hug the Pug
“A smelly situation contrived to create an easily legible text for budding readers.” — KIRKUS REVIEWs
A simple story told in comic-book form about a baby that does a lot of hugging . . . with one caveat!
Baby likes to cuddle. Grown-Up lets him cuddle the rug, the jug, the bug, and the slug. But DON’T HUG THE PUG! Why not? What’s wrong with the pug? This hilarious and deceptively simple story will have little ones shrieking with laughter. The combination of speech bubbles, rhymes, very short sentences, and a stinky twist makes this a perfect book for both the pre-school audience and early readers.
