The Hug Store: A Children's Book about Compassion, Empathy & Self-Reliance

The Hug Store is inspired by a true story! Visiting her Grandparents for Thanksgiving, 5 year old (Shana), when asked for a hug from her Grandfather, told him that she was all out of hugs and had to go to the store to buy more! So while this book is about the benefits and importance of hugging, the story behind the story is even richer and will inspire children to honor and trust their instincts when they don't feel like hugging another person. Hug Store is an enchanting tale of self discovery that beautifully illustrates how life's greatest gifts can never be bought, and are instead, always found deep within us. The Hug Store is endorsed by several nationally recognized health care professionals and features a list of over a dozen reasons why hugs are not only healthy for our body, mind and well-being, but why they are actually essential for it. - Children will LOVE the rich vivid illustrations! - Parents will LOVE the beautiful message! - Teachers and Child Care professional will LOVE the further opportunity it allows for discussions.
