Who doesn't like hugs from daddy? Hugs from any loved one, even. The author, Karen Katz, has written a book about love. Certainly about hugs, but that means love. A baby when it wakes up is usually greeted with a hug and some kisses, or many kisses , many hugs. And, on through the day, hugs and kisses are given by daddy, in this case. Hugs are one of the most enjoyable forms of life, and baby knows when he us hugged by his mommy that lee shines through. During the day, you can count the hugs, and daddy hugs are particularly beautiful and meaningful. A child who is hugged will always remember the love that shines through. Have you been hugged by your daddy recently? Parents/teachers will enjoy reading the book to their children. Children will enjoy the soothing lying tone of voice test comes through when reading this book. The illustrations are lovely, vivid and colorful, and depict the day of hugs from daddy. Highly Recommended. prisrob 07-25-15

This is a lovely book for baby. It's bigger in size than most of the other baby board books I own but it's not too big so that my 7 month old can still hold it on her own and chew on the corners. The prose is rhythmic and it introduces babies at a young age to numbers and counting. Babies love being read the same book over and over and there are enough pages in this book that you as the adult reading it won't get bored. It introduces you to the baby on the first page, then on each addtional page, it counts down from 10 to one, then ends on the last page. So there are at least 12 pages of story line to flip through. The illustrations are beautiful and my baby loves looking at all the colorful pictures. Well done. I hightly recommend this book and the other books by the same author "Counting Kisses" and "Mommy Hugs".

I am expecting my first child. I bought this for my husband to read to the baby and it is so touching! It's better than I expected! It has numbers on each page (1-10) so it is slightly educational. It shows the father as a loving, nurturing parent. I really like this compared to most daddy books that show fishing, camping, hunting, etc. My husband is a scientist and is sensitive and this book is perfect for him and our baby!!! I cannot wait to see him read it to baby!

I just had a baby shower for my second child, and I didn't want my husband to feel left out. So he got Daddy Hugs as a present just for him. It is a well made, colorful board book. My 2.5 year old daughter really enjoyed reading it with her dad. I like how it counts, and you give hugs in creative ways. It is very interactive and sweet. A great way for Daddy's to read and bond with their babies!

If your a dad, you better read this because it is the best. Fun way to spend time with your little one, great time to bond and just seeing your kid all giddy and trying to pronounce words is funny. It is always a nice book for night reading when your kids knocked out or your trying to knock them out, makes you realize being a dad is totally awesome and quietly hoping your child will grow up to be an astrophysicist/engineer/something awesome who discovers the secrets to warp speed and interstellar travel and turns our world into stars before you die is a nice bonus.

This is a dear book, reaffirming the tender side of fathering. Some said the counting is completely unnecessary for a child so young, but I like the way it incorporates and it's hardly a harmful concept to which to expose a little one. Daddy put this straight in our future nursery and I look forward to seeing him read it to our little one, with lots of cuddles and modeling of the various hug types. Very sweet.

I bought this for my husband for his first fathers day. It's great! Such a cute story. My favorite part of the book is when it talks about finger hugs. I think everyone smiles when babies hold their fingers. My husband loved this book and reads it to her often. It's colorful and is a hardbook so will hold up. Very short and easy to read.

I bought this for my husband to read to our daughter, and it is very cute. It is a book that teaches counting, as well as encourages interaction between dad and babe. It seems more geared towards daughters, but only because of the attire on the child in the book. There are no gender pronouns in the book that specifically say it's for a girl, so daddy and sons may also enjoy it.

Es un libro ideal para manos pequeñitas (1-2-3 años) donde se refuerza el lazo padre-hijo. La historia es sobre un bebé y su papá y diferentes momentos que comparten juntos, a la vez que enumera esos momentos del 1 al 10, por lo que también enfatiza el 'contar hasta diez'. Independientemente de si se adquiere con la intención de reforzar el inglés, puede leerse perfectamente en español (inglés sencillo) aprovechando las imágenes maravillosas y la idea principal que es enfocarse en el amor de un padre a su bebé. 5 estrellas en contenido, imágenes, inglés sencillo y material adecuado para manos pequeñitas.

Very sweet book.

Mio figlio l'adora! He love it a lot! He compares me in the book! Very good! Lo consiglio assolutamente a tutti!

We bought all of Karen Katz book and this is by far our baby's favorite. We make it into a little song. It teaches counting and actions. One I am so glad your my baby hug! The other day we found her sitting in the chair reading along by herself and giving herself a little hug and clapping her hands. Bright colours and easy words make this an easy fun read.

Meu filho adorou. É um livrinho pra ser ter um momento pai e filho
