Publisher Description
Hedgehugs from author Steve Wilson and illustrator Lucy Tapper tells the sweet story of two hedgehog friends and their attempts to hug in spite of their spiky spines.
Horace and Hattie are hedgehogs, and the very best of friends. Together, they make daisy chains, splash in puddles, and have tea parties. But there is one thing they can't do—hug! They are just too spiky. Throughout the seasons, these two hedgehogs will try many different ways of hugging. But will Horace and Hattie find a hug that feels just right?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The husband-and-wife team of Wilson and Tapper introduces Horace and Hattie, hedgehogs who are "the very best of friends" but can't figure out how to hug each other. It's a familiar picture book conceit, though the collaborators do include at least one novel element after having no success using snow ("too cold"), logs ("too bumpy"), strawberries ("too sticky"), and leaves ("too scratchy") to buffer their quills, wearing spare socks like onesies does the trick. "So the next time... one of your socks goes missing, you know what it means," write the authors, solving one of life's great mysteries. Ages 4 8.
