A Cuddle and a Cwtch
Snugger than a snuggle, cuddlier than a cuddle,
A cwtch is a heartbeat of love in a huddle.
Cwtch—which rhymes with butch—is a Welsh word used to describe a whole lot of love. This endearing illustrated poem introduces the term to the English language in order to share its healing, human warmth. Sarah Kilbride’s rhyming text introduces the reader to all the ways in which a cwtch can be understood, and just how special a thing it is to share with our loved ones of any age.

The edition I have is different, though the same ISBN number and publisher, which confuses me in terms of posting here, however...
This warm, funny and heartfelt rhyming text talks about all the ways we can give and receive a cwtch and introduces the term into the English language as the perfect way to express this healing expression of kindness. The books' quirky, happy, free illustrations that perfectly accent the poem (and the font, developed by Sarah Kilbride especially for the book.) This is not simply a picture book for children. It is one for every age...one that should be in every home to remind us all of the joy and power of a cwtch; and that we all need a cwtch as often as possible. Both a cwtch and this book are perfect gifts for any occasion. Fancy a cwtch?
And it's adorable!
