Meet Victor the Huggable, a scruffy and well-loved teddy bear who has seen better days. He's missing a few parts. Actually, he's missing a lot of parts! Desperate but determined, he is willing to do anything to be whole again.
In his quest for completeness, Victor, sneaks around and scavenges parts from other toys. But as he gathers more and more pieces, he begins to lose something far more his heart. It's only when he sees what he has become that Victor realizes his mistakes and tries to return all the parts he stole.
In the end, the little girl finds him and reminds him just how much he means to her, flaws and all.
This heartwarming tale of self-discovery and unconditional love is a fun read aloud picture books for adults and kids. With its charming illustrations and humor, Victor the Huggable is the perfect choice for anyone with well-loved teddies who have seen better days.
I live on an one acre homestead south of Cape Town with my partner and three kids and too many animals.
As a parent I love the experience of reading to our kids, no matter how old they get. As an author, I love to make books that are quirky and fun to read aloud.
