What is Hugs and Kisses about?

Big Blue Whale longs for a hug, but every sea creature he meets is too small, too ticklish or simply not quite right. Meanwhile, Octopus has bumped her head and needs a kiss better, yet her many tangled tentacles make comforting her tricky. Told from both sides of the ocean, their journeys bring them closer together as they search for the perfect match. With friendship, determination and a huge pop-up surprise, this is a warm and funny underwater story about finding someone special.
