It's Matilda's first day at The Meadows and she's very excited. But when Mummy goes to say goodbye, Matilda isn't happy. She doesn't want Mummy to go.
The next day, Mummy has a helpful suggestion. She draws two hug buttons-one on Matilda's wrist and one on her own. Then, when Matilda wants a hug, or wants to give one, she can press the hug button and know that Mummy is thinking about her too.
From the award-winning duo, Naomi Jones and Rebecca Ashdown, comes a warm embrace of a book about learning to cope with separation.
Naomi Jones spent five years selling children's books rights before embarking on a career as a freelance writer. She currently also works as a freelance industry editor, and reviews children's books for the award-winning family travel website Mini Travellers. Having studied illustration at Westminster University and Central Saint Martins, Rebecca has worked as a graphic designer, vector illustrator and motion graphics artist, before becoming a full-time illustrator.
