Hello, friend!My name is Cinnamon, and I love snuffling out adventures, trying new things, taking lots of naps, and especially making new friends! This is my first book, and I’ve written it just for you. Whether you’re a hedgehog fanatic or still not quite sure how you feel about spiky little mammals (we’re loads of fun—I promise!), you’re sure to find something in these pages that quill make you smile.
I may be small, but I have a lot of BIG thoughts and emotions. And from what I’ve seen of humans, you seem to have a lot on your minds as well. After all, the world is complicated and hard and full of many ups and downs that can make us feel worried, excited, scared, happy, frustrated, overwhelmed, and maybe even a little bit prickly all at the same time. And that’s okay. There’s a time for everything and a season for every activity (including moments when you want to curl up and hide), which is why I’ve set up my little book of hedgehugs and happiness into these sections:
• Time to Sniff Out an Adventure
• Time to Forage and Gather Quills
• Time for a Hedgehug
• Time with a Prickle of Friends
• Time for a Hedgehog High Five
• Time to Nest at Home
• Time to Hibernate
Life might be super hard or quilly easy for you right now, but no matter how you feel in this moment, I hope that when you flip through these pages, you’ll feel me cheering you on and giving you a hedgehog high five!
Love,
Cinnamon
