Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff is smothered as he gets a group hug from children after reading to them at an Ottawa daycare on Tuesday, October 20, 2009.FRED CHARTRAND

Michael Ignatieff apparently needed a hug today. He got a gianormous one earlier from some Ottawa children after he read to them (yes, he's in there somewhere under all of them).

He didn't share with them the Aesop classic The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Probably a good thing because being as perceptive as children are, they might have noticed the resemblance between Michael Ignatieff and the shepherd boy in the fable. Seems the Leader of the Opposition has been crying some wolf.

What will happen to Iggy when the wolf really appears?
