Trade Review

"Really lovely to read aloud, this comes with echoes of Dr. Seuss."—Bookseller

"Saltzberg's tribute to the lovability of a favorite book bounces in perfect rhythm. Benaglia's pen on paper, digitally colored illustrations tell their own whimsical story in delightful and unpredictable ways."—School Library Journal

"The new board book version is a clear winner, inviting touch and placing the youngest readers right in the middle of the action... Stimulated from awareness to empathic interest, my kids were enraptured, aware the book was talking about itself, directly to them…the bright palette charmed us all."—The New York Times

"Kids will definitely want to "Hug This Book!" They will also want to sing the words, take it in the bath, read it in the mirror and wrap it up in a sweater when it is cold... Will inspire giggles and playful interaction."—Exchange Magazine
