What reviewers said
* "A feel-good ride, full of droll artistic asides and an abundance of caring.... In his first outing as an author, Campbell shines."
"Whether for bedtime or storytime, affectionate kids and adults will thoroughly embrace (ahem) this fuzzy and goofy paean to cuddling."
"The noodle-armed little boy who loves hugs is irrepressibly charming....delightfully rendered, and the hug machineās enthusiasm for friendliness is hard not to love."
"a non-sappy, warm-hearted ending to a book that feels just like a big olā hug"
"Campbellās simply outlined watercolors exude warmth, emotion, and sly humor, from the deadpan expressions of several surprised recipients of the Hug Machineās hugs to his own serenely closed eyes during each hug, which make it clear that heās giving each hug his utmost."
"Absolutely irresistable."
