Slug Needs A Hug!

By Jeanne Willis and Tony Ross (Andersen Press, £11.99)

Little Slug is upset that his mother never hugs him. Is it because he is so ugly? So he asks an array of creatures about how 'to make himself more huggable, less slithery and sluggable. For sadly, Sluggy didn't have a clue'. Kitten thinks he should be furrier, bird suggests some feathers, while the pigs reckons he needs trotters and a squeak. Soon slug has a totally new look, but will his mummy hug him now?

Another fast-paced rhyming delight from this dream team of author and illustrator.
