While We Can't Hug
Eoin McLaughlin, Polly Dunbar
The bestselling and heart-warming picture book that shows us ways to be affectionate while social distancing, from the team behind The Hug. Hedgehog and Tortoise were the best of friends. They wanted to give each other a great, big hug. But they weren't allowed to touch. ""Don't worry,"" said Owl. ""There are lots of ways to show someone you love them."" So the two friends wave to each other, blow kisses, sing songs, dance around and write letters. And even though they can't hug and they can't touch, they both know that they are loved. A gorgeous, uplifting, inspiring picture book that makes social distancing fun!

I liked all the ways the animals expressed how they liked each other without giving each other a hug. I liked this book and would recommend this to my friends.

This is a lovely story that I bought when we was in lockdown. This will always be a special memory of the time we all spent together at home safe indoors. It is a special way to show how you can spread love to friends. I love this book and recommend to everyone :)

I thought it was brilliant because it was when it was Covid and it made people happy.

I really liked this story. I like the idea of making paintings to each other. Blowing kisses is a great way to show someone that you love them. The tortoise was my favourite character.
