Spring Reads: I'm Going To Give You A Bear Hug!


ZonderKidz; 30 pages; $16.99; Amazon
To kickoff this year's first "Spring Reads" post, I'm featuring a review for the picture book "I'm Going To Give You A Bear Hug!" by author Caroline B. Cooney with illustrations by Tim Warnes. The book was published at the end of 2016 by Zonderkids. I've had a review copy for about two months and I"m just now getting around to reviewing it.

It's difficult for me to write a decent review for the title as the book doesn't have a plot of any kind. As the title suggests, the picture book is about giving hugs through the eyes of a child. The child in the story uses his imagination to give different kinds of hugs, such as a cat hug, a big hug, a bear hug, etc..


Final Thoughts: The main reason why I wanted to review this title is because it's written by Caroline B. Cooney, an author who wrote many young adult horror books throughout the 1990s. Overall, I'm Going to Give You A Big Bear Hug is a cute picture book with colorful illustrations that will easily appeal to young readers. I plan on giving my copy to my younger cousins as an Easter gift.



*I received a complimentary copy from the publisher for my honest review and they are 100% my own opinions. I received no other compensation for this review and I am not required to give a positive review. I am also not associated with the publisher or author in any way.
