Waffles & Julius: No Hugs Please!

In his latest picture book, Vere introduces readers to Waffles, an adorably happy, bouncy dog who loves cuddles. Unfortunately, his companion Julius the cat is not keen on hugs at all. Waffles tries to do everything he can to get one, including fetching Julius a stick, waiting patiently and even howling a song, but Julius still declines. Will Waffles ever get the cuddle he so desires? Waffles and Julius are a gorgeous new picture-book duo, Waffles with his patient yet desperate desire for a hug, and Julius with his cool and collected control of the situation. The pay-off, when Waffles finally gets his heart’s desire, is very satisfying.
