The Bear and the Hug

By Melissa Cannioto

"Will you give me a hug?" he began to implore.

"I'm scared hugs do not exist anymore."

After a long sleep, Bear ventures out of his cave to find the world outside is not how he left it. Instead of greeting him with open arms, Bear's friends keep their distance. Follow Bear as he journeys through the forest to discover what has happened to hugs.

This charming tale of friendship hopes to help young readers navigate situations of isolation, confusion, and separation.
