From the publisher

A sensitive and honest picture book that celebrates the different ways in which we can show each other affection.We like hugs big or small, squeeze-me-tight or feathery light.Bear hugs, morning hugs, jump hugs, too. Quiet, loud; they all feel right. But . . . What do others like?Some people love a big, strong hug. Others like a gentle hug. Some don’t like to hug at all–they like to shake hands instead. Same Love, Different Hug is a gentle picture book that looks at how different people connect and navigate boundaries, modeling social-emotional skills for the youngest among us.
