There are hugs for wrigglers and hugs for gigglers, hugs that are tickly and hugs that are prickly. But as none are quite right for little panda, he sets out in search of one that's perfect. He tries bear hugs, and dinosaur hugs, alien hugs and hugs from monkeys, only to find that the perfect one is very close to home.
