Hugaboo, I Love You

Lifting flaps shows cute-as-can-be animals receiving enthusiastic “hugaboos” from their grown-up counterparts. “If you were a little kangaroo... You would get a jumpy hugaboo!” (Under the flap, a big kangaroo holds a little one tight.) A lion cub gets a furry hugaboo, and for a baby giraffe it's a tall hugaboo on a flap that unfolds twice to reveal the big giraffe's neck. In a showy finish, a friendly bear opens its paws and offers a “hugaboo for you!” Likely to inspire some animal-themed hugs. Ages 3–5. (Dec.)
