Description

“The rhyming cadence makes this title a great one for baby story times and one-on-one readings...A first purchase for all libraries, and not limited to the conventional board book audience.”—School Library Journal, starred review

A hug and a giggle? Who doesn’t love a good higgle!?

This delightfully playful board book will have readers of all ages chuckling as they read fabricated words of affection. A tickle plus a snuggle makes for a tuggle while a snickle and a higgle gets you a sniggle. Accented by adorable photos of beaming babies, this silly board book takes the reader on an engaging romp through repeated rhyming sounds landing right back at the best feeling ever—a snuggle with someone you love.
