I can hug people to show them that I love them. Why and How We Hug People hug to show that they love each other. When I hug someone, I put my arms around them and squeeze gently. Sometimes people listen to stories. Stories can be about things that really happened or they can be make believe.
Some stories are long and take awhile to read.
Other stories are short and take only a few minutes. Some stories have pictures and others just have words. Sometimes I can learn new things from stories. I can listen to stories at home and at school. When I listen to stories I sit quietly and pay attention.
