He sits in a pot in a window that faces the empty desert, which is just how he likes it. So, when all manner of creatures--from tumbleweed to lizard to owl--come to disturb his peace, Hank is annoyed. \n \nHe doesn't like noise, he doesn't like rowdiness, and definitely does not like hugs. \n \nBut the thing is, no one is offering one. Who would want to hug a plant so mean? Hank is beginning to discover that being alone can be, well, lonely. \n \nSo he comes up with a plan to get the one thing he thought he would never need: a hug from a friend.\n
