My Little Sister Hugged An Ape
by Claudia Ann Sodaro
A little sister is "on a hugging spree." She hugs a different animal from A - Z in this delightful picture book.
Written in verse, Bill Grossman's rhythm and rhyme will delight both children and adults as they read about the various animals the sister hugs and the humorous consequences she experiences. Add Kevin Hawkes' colorful, larger-than-life, explicit illustrations, and you're certain to get a "read it, again," response.
This hard-cover, fiction picture book, makes reviewing the alphabet and recalling animal names one fun activity. Whether the sister hugs a ferret, skunk or yak, even brothers will be happy at this surprise ending - maybe! I recommend this book for children ages 2-7.
