About the book: Everyone needs a hug in this new, irresistibly funny picture book from Aaron Blabey, the New York Times bestselling creator of The Bad Guys and Pig the Pug!
In I Need a Hug, a tiny porcupine just wants a cuddle. All of the other animals turn him away because of his prickly spikes. But finally the porcupine meets an animal who's happy to hug — a snake!
Rich with author-illustrator Aaron Blabey's signature rhyming text and unforgettably splendid illustrations, I Need a Hug is a sweet story about friendship and learning not to judge a book by its cover.
