Hugs from Clara Vulliamy

| February 7, 2013

Clara Vulliamy is a talented writer and illustrator of children’s books. Her range of books include Martha and the Bunny Brothers, Muffin, The Bear with Sticky Paws and Lucky Wish Mouse. One of our favourites is Martha and the Bunny Brothers with the delightful character Martha her younger brothers Monty and Pip.

National Hug Day is celebrated on 21 January and Clara shared illustrations of Martha, Monty and Pip enjoying different hugs in her post Happy National Hugs Day.

I’m an avid reader of Clara’s blog and responded to her suggestion for a new hug with the idea of a ‘pet’ hug. Clara kindly illustrated a bright and cheerful hug with Martha and Paws.

When we return to London I’m going to frame this superb illustration and hang it in Imogen’s nursery as a reminder of the importance of hugs with our loved ones each and every day.

You can view Clara’s beautiful illustrations and find out more about her books and fun arty things to do at Clara’s blog Sunny Side Up! And if you’re like us and are fans of Martha and the Bunny Brothers there’s also a Happy Bunny Club for your children to join.
