A little story about Hugo

Hugo is the guide — and even guides get full. A small story about letting friends help.

Hugo gliding along a glowing current in EmOcean — Hugo glides through EmOcean, leaving a rainbow trail. Somebody needs him over here. Somebody over there. Off he goes, helping, helping, helping.

Hugo holding a bowl of Emogoo snacks — Snack break! A quick Emogoo on the way. “Lovalicious!” Then on to the next friend. There is always a next friend.

Hugo looking dizzy, his tentacles glowing in many colors — Too many feelings at once. Hugo’s arms glow every color. He wobbles, dizzy. Luna’s soft voice, off to the side: “Hugo, rest with me.” Hugo sits. Being helped feels good, too.

Your child can answer, point to a picture, or simply keep listening.

For grown-ups

All feelings are okay. Not every action is. In the stories, the friends then ask together: “What could we do?” Hugo is a companion, not someone with every answer.

In the books

Hugo guides Finley in Finley and the Shadow of Fear — and appears in every Lovetopus book.

If it feels right: “What else could help Hugo when he feels dizzy?” It’s okay to just keep reading.
