This book and it’s sweet rhyming rhythm are seriously adorable. It’s all about hugs, animals, and family love. I am so happy to see a brown family featured, and tenderness and hugs between a father and son. It’s a sweet little picture book with really adorable photos. It feels warm and cozy, which is perfect for a winter themed book.

This story is so cute. It's about different types of animal hugs such as those that are soft and cuddly and how they relate to human hugs. The illustrations are charming and the leading girl a POC. All together this is a perfect picture book. The rhymes work, the cadence is spot on, the illustrations make the reader feel warm and cuddly, and the story itself works on all levels.

What a sweet, beautiful book for children! This will make the perfect holiday gift for the little one in your life. The rhyming text describing each hug is as adorable as the illustrations! I don't have grandchildren yet, but that won't stop me from adding this to my personal library! Thank you NetGalley for my review e-copy; this is one to treasure!

This simple rhyming board book is cuteness overload. It expresses happiness and acceptance. Snuggle up together and share the love that is so beautifully expressed on every page. This book is a sequel to the successful, "I'm Going to Give You a Bear Hug."
The book is full of imaginative ways to give and receive hugs. A thread of kindness and joy shows up in each scenario stitching the theme together perfectly.
It is a wonderful wintry bedtime tale ( or any season really ) to cozy up and read together. The illustrations are extremely well done. They are vibrant, cheerful, action-packed and very kid-friendly. "I'm Going to Give You a Polar Bear Hug!" will encourage you to become a well-oiled hugging-machine. Wrap your heart and arms around this fantastic book ! I highly recommend it.
