While We Can't Hug

Tax included.

Hedgehog and Tortoise are the best of friends. But they're not allowed to hug. Luckily, there are lots of other ways to show someone you love them.

So the two friends wave to each other, blow kisses, sing songs, dance around and write letters. And even though they can't hug and they can't touch, they both know that they are loved.
