Synopsis

Meet Doug, a cheerful boy who doesn't like hugs—they're too squeezy and squashy for him. Instead, Doug prefers high fives, low fives, and even spinny fives! This lively picture book encourages children to understand and respect personal boundaries, teaching that the best way to know if someone likes hugs is to simply ask. After all, everyone has the right to decide how they want to be treated.
