Daddy Hugs

Daddy and baby animals cuddle up in this cozy board book featuring animal families, habitats, and sounds.

Little ones love daddy hugs: feathered hugs, whiskered hugs, cozy hugs, just-daddy-and-me hugs. Each illustration of Daddy Hugs playfully teases to the next with hints of a new animal pair to come, until the story winds down with a human father gently rocking his son to sleep.

From furry bears to silky hares, Caldecott honoree Nancy Tafuri celebrates the extra special bond between daddies and their babies in this perfect gift for Father's Day.
