A Hug for You by David King (Cover has slight damage)

Adam King stole millions of people’s hearts when he appeared on RTE’s Late Late Toy Show in 2020.

This book, written by his dad, is the story of Adam’s Virtual Hug, a heart-shaped sign he carried during the COVID-19 pandemic to help him stay connected to his teacher while he was learning from home. He also took it to his regular hospital appointments to show his doctors, nurses, and care staff that he was still giving them a hug, just in a different way.

This picture book tells the tale of one little boy with a big idea that came straight from the heart. The virtual hug makes its way onto mugs, postage stamps and even all the way to outer space, spreading warmth and connection to people all over the world.
