Who has time for hugs when they're busy fighting fires, driving an ambulance, and rocketing off to Mars This little boy and his sister pretend to be all kinds of heroes-but they won't take a break to give Mom a hug. She reminds them that even firefighters hug their moms, but it's beginning to look like she will never get a cuddle!
A good pick for sparking pretend play and maybe even an occasional embrace. (School Library Journal)
Children will have fun looking at the detailed pictures that show the busy boy at work and charmingly portray the relationship between him and his toddler sister. (Booklist)
