AlbakiReads Editorial

A tactile book about animal hugs

Kathryn Jewitt pairs a rhyming text with boldly colored animal illustrations in this board book for very young children. Bears, lions, owls, and puppies appear across pages where die-cut shapes reveal felt beneath, inviting little hands to explore the contrast in textures as the book is read aloud. Its simple subject—cuddles in many forms—connects the sensory page design with a familiar theme of closeness and care.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Babies and toddlers, especially ages 0–3, exploring board books with a caregiver.
  • Families seeking an interactive read-aloud with animal illustrations and touch-and-feel pages.

Book overview

Cuddle up close with How Do You Hug?, a rhyming, high-contrast board book featuring die-cut shapes that peek through to soft felt pages.

Your little one will love what School Library Journal called a "delightful touch-and-feel book" and "a hug-palooza, filled with equal parts softness and sweetness."

Cuddles come in all shapes and sizes in this boldly colored board book perfect for the youngest children (and parents who just want an excuse to snuggle them).

With a gentle soothing rhyme and art that features familiar animals ranging from bears and lions to owls and puppies, little ones will adore being read to in the arms of their caretakers.

Each page features die-cuts peeking through to soft, brilliantly colored felt underneath, adding an extra layer of interactivity.
