Desi's book pick 5/1/06

Hugville by Court Crandall. I happen to be working with Court at the moment and ran into him at the UCLA book fair over the weekend, so I bought his book and he signed it. The Mayor of Hugville gives us a tour through his town and shows us all the different kinds of hugs available there. It's a very sweet book and my toddler particularly liked the illustrations which are very Ren and Stimpy like and the little tidbits about hugs and other trivia found elsewhere on each page. The best part of is the ending where the book urges the reader of the book to hug the person next to them with a big gluey hug! Hugs out...
