A Book and a Hug features thousands of children's book reviews. Created by a librarian as a labor of love, it's a great site for finding the perfect book for your favorite child.

The Problem

A Book and a Hug has terrific content (it helped Jen find books for her niece's birthday), but unfortunately, the site had been built in an unsustainable manner by a previous developer. This meant that updates to the site were difficult to nearly impossible.

The Solution

4Web was able to untangle the code, converting the site to Joomla 1.7 and making it easy to maintain for the client. The site can be easily updated by the client, including adding new book reviews and new sections to the site. Book reviews can be sliced and diced in dozens of ways, allowing visitors to locate the perfect book. The site also features video interviews with children's authors.

Client Testimonial

"4Web makes me feel as though they are working WITH me... and they "own" the problems and challenges my website faces.  They rebuilt the site so the software is up to date which makes us a reliable presence on the site.  So important as the site is being discovered around the country and around the world.  I really appreciate the timely responses.  That is a real plus."
