Who Wants a Hug?
Jeff Mack
3.5 Stars

Everyone likes Bear. He gives away free hugs. Skunk is upset. Nobody likes him or his free slugs. Skunk decides to do something about it. He tries all sorts of tricks to get stinky things to hit Bear (so that nobody will like him because he stinks). However, like Wile E. Coyote, everything seems to backfire. And thankfully Bear knows just what to do when Skunk is totally deflated from his failures. With Bear looking just like a big teddy bear who hugs other animals that resemble lovable stuffed friends, Skunk really stands out (and not just with his green funky “smell” that floats around the pages). Little kiddos who love hugs and possibly even the little ones that pretend they don’t love hugs will enjoy seeing what eventually happens to Skunk (and Bear).
