Definitely a contender for cutest book ever, Hug Me by Simona Ciraolo (Flying Eye Books, RRP £11.99) is the tale of a little cactus, Felipe, who is in need of a hug. Unfortunately, his family are a little bit, er, spiky. So he sets off on a quest for a cuddle and finds a friend in an unlikely place. Lovely exploration of friendship and what it means to be different.
