Hedgehog Needs a Hug (Hardcover)

Author and Illustrator: Jen Betton

Publisher: Nancy Paulsen Books (2018)

For ages 3-7

When Hedgehog wakes up feeling down in the snout and droopy in the prickles, he knows a hug will make him feel much better. But none of his animal friends are eager to wrap their arms around Hedgehog's prickles, and he's too smart to fall for Fox's sly offer.

Then Hedgehog gets a surprise: Another animal in the forest is feeling exactly the same way.

Luckily, both are kind and brave enough for the perfect hug.
