Centipedes, those crawliest bugs
have 300 legs for giving out hugs.
That's 150 on one side to grasp
and 150 on the other to clasp.

Hugs abound in this celebration of multi-legged animals and insects and their babies And at the end of the day, human parents can give their little ones as many hugs as they want--with two arms.
