Jules the kitten (also known in the MUTTS cartoons as Shtinky Puddin') knows that hugs can make the world a better place. So he makes a Hug To-Do List--with the endangered species of the world at the top--and travels the globe to show all of the animals that someone cares. From Africa to the North Pole to his own back yard, Jules proves a hug is the simplest--but kindest--gift we can give. With its gently environmental theme, this joyous rhyming story about sharing love is an ideal gift year-round.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for </b><i><b>The Little Red Cat Who Ran Away and Learned His ABC's (the Hard Way): <br></b></i>A <i>New York Times </i>Notable Children's Book of 2017<br>A <i>Publishers Weekly </i>Best Book of 2017<i><b><br></b></i>An Amazon Best Book of the Month (September 2017)<br><i>School Library Journal</i>'s Best Picture Books of 2017<br>A <i>Horn Book</i> Fanfare Best Books of the Year 2017<br><i>Huffington Post</i>'s Best Picture Books of 2017<br>Chicago Public Library Best of the Best Books of 2017<br>A Nerdies 2017 Selection<br><br><br><b>Praise for <i>Just Like Heaven</i>: </b><br>McDonnell delivers his message with maximum effectiveness.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly (starred review)</b></i><br><br><b>Praise for <i>The Gift of Nothing</i>: </b> <p/>Both Mutts fans and newcomers will appreciate McDonnell's clever wordplay and lovable characters.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly (starred review)</b></i><br><br>*Energetic and highly engaging...A brilliant caper that young learners will want to pore over!--<i><b>School Library Journal, starred review</b></i><br><br>*Give this book an F, yes, an F: for fun and funny.<br>--<i><b>Kirkus Reviews, starred review</b></i><br><br>*Gloriously fun...teeming with visual wit.<br>--<i><b>Publishers Weekly, starred review</b></i><br><br>*Touches of wit and plenty of zip recommend this for lap-sit sharing.<br>--<i><b>The Horn Book, starred review</b></i><br><br>A perfect meditation on gift giving and friendship.--<i><b>Kirkus</b></i><br><br>McDonnell's work once again proves to be silly, sweet and even timeless.--<i><b>The New York Times Book Review</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Patrick McDonnell</b> is the author and illustrator of <i>Tek: The Modern Cave Boy</i>, <i>Thank You and Good Night</i>, <i>A Perfectly Messed-Up Story</i>, <i>The Monsters' Monster</i>, and <i>Me...Jane</i>, a Caldecott Honor Book.
