One Hug

Debut author Katrina Moore and illustrator Julia Woolf have created a cozy rhyming picture book that follows a Chinese American family as they celebrate the arrival of their immigrant relatives and showcases the many sweet ways of expressing love.

Soft and strong, warm and snug,

what’s your favorite way to hug?

Mom will SQUEEZE you like a bear;

Dad will WHOOSH you through the air!

Those we love from far away

have come to share a meal today.

But someone shy is off alone.

Can you help her feel at home?

Told in sweet, joyful rhymes and bright, colorful illustrations, One Hug celebrates the many ways we embrace our loved ones. As a Chinese American family wakes up to begin preparing for the arrival of their immigrant family, the littlest girl begins to feel left out and nervous. But an encouraging brother and the welcoming arms of her grandma help end the day with a belly full of food, jars full of fireflies, and cozy, snuggly slumber.
