Amy Guglielmo, Jacqueline Tourville, and Giselle Potter come together to tell the inspiring story of autism advocate Dr. Temple Grandin and her brilliant invention: the hug machine.


As a young girl, Temple Grandin loved folding paper kites, making obstacle courses, and building lean-tos. But she really didn’t like hugs. Temple wanted to be held—but to her, hugs felt like being stuffed inside the scratchiest sock in the world; like a tidal wave of dentist drills, sandpaper, and awful cologne, coming at her all at once. Would she ever get to enjoy the comfort of a hug?


Then one day, Temple had an idea. If she couldn’t receive a hug, she would make one…she would build a hug machine!

Giselle Potter

Giselle Potter and her sister, Chloe, traveled a lot with their parents' puppet theater. They often had just each other for companionship and therefore became very close. So Potter feels so lucky to have two daughters who are also very close. Watching their relationship, she is reminded of the unique, unmatchable bond of sisters. Potter has illustrated more than thirty children's books, and many of the books she both wrote and illustrated are either about or inspired by sisters.
