Pickles' Prickly Problem

A colorful, quirky hedgehog picture book about self-acceptance and individuality, perfect for 3–5 year olds.

Prickles are very important for hedgehogs. But just how does a prickle-less hedgehog find his spines? Well, Pickles has lots of ideas! Coloring pencils, carrots and lollipops, to name a few! But none of them are quite right… Join Pickles on his journey of discovery in this charming hedgehog book as he encounters friendships, mishaps, and the joy of being himself.

Brought to life by the bold, technicolor artwork of writer and illustrator Lydia Ripper, this read-aloud storybook is a visual treat that explores themes of cooperation and self-esteem, helping little ones understand the importance of celebrating our differences.
