An upbeat ode to setting and respecting personal boundaries

Its time for a birthday party! On this happy occasion, a friend arrives with hugs for everybody: in greeting, as a way to celebrate perfectly pinning the tail on the donkey and cracking open the piata, and of course to wish a happy birthday.

But noteverybodywants a hugand thats okay! One child prefers to wave hello, and one likes to celebrate with high fives. One even suggests a silly, super-secret handshake that ends with a surprise magic trick. But wait! Aremagic tricksfor everybody? It turns out, they arent for the bunny, who prefers not to disappear. An even sweeter ending? Delicious birthday cake for everyone to enjoy.

The delightful cast of characters fromPink Is for Everybodycomes together again in this affirming story about setting and respecting body boundaries. This book cheerfully imparts that there are lots of ways, hugs and otherwise, to say hello, hooray, and happy birthday!
