Book Synopsis

"A reassuring story, with richly immersive illustrations." ... "Teckentrup's familiar stylistic elements--textured surfaces, intense color highlights, and beautiful nature details--are set against a subtle change of background from dawn to night."
- Kirkus Reviews
A brand new hedgehog story - the 5th volume of Britta Teckentrup's successful series!

It's Little Hedgehog's birthday, and they wake up full of excitement. But as the day goes on and no guests appear, disappointment begins to take hold. Has everyone forgotten? Where's the party?

In her signature warm and gentle style, Britta Teckentrup explores the emotional rollercoaster that birthdays can bring--from eager anticipation to sadness, and finally, delight.

When a secret plan is revealed, Little Hedgehog learns that love and friendship can arrive when you least expect them.

The fifth book in the beloved Big Hedgehog and Little Hedgehog series, this is a heartfelt celebration of connection, kindness, and being seen.

With expressive illustrations and honest emotion, it's the perfect story to share--on a birthday or any day.
