Book excerpt: The Legend of Hedgehog Boy, a 168 page comic book by writer & artist Rene Capone, conjures up all of the classic children's tales of young and lost souls fleeing into their imaginations in order to escape the cold, harsh nature of reality. And like Peter, Alice, and Dorothy before him, we're presented with a brash and courageous hero who doesn't submit to torment and strives to find freedom and happiness despite the predominant darkness of his past.This hero is Hedgehog Boy, a young man who escaped from an abusive home. The tormented child spent his nights huddled in a cold cellar and saw salvation only in the ultimate end of suicide. But before all was truly lost, he pulled himself back from the brink and fled to the woods. And, as the rules of fantasy and magical realism dictate, the woods the boy finds refuge in quietly shift into a land of the imagination. There the boy skins a hedgehog and dons the spiky mantle as a crown of independence. He also meets Frank the Bear, a wounded teddy who bleeds stuffing; because he has no fingers, Frank cannot even mend his own injury. Hedgehog Boy offers his help, and a friendship is born.The unfortunate truth is that suffering and innocence senselessly abounds in the world. Children are too often the victims-children who seek refuge just as Hedgehog Boy did. Enter Kitty: another young man with a dark past who wanders into the woods and finds his way to Hedgehog Boy and Frank. No, Kitty is not the boy's given name; rather, it's the name of his rebirth. Hedgehog Boy skins a cat and offers it to his new friend as a fresh identity. Kitty accepts freely and of hesitation.

Book excerpt: A classic tale of love and acceptance from the Brothers Grimm is beautifully rendered in this magical retelling, now with an audio recording. Hans is an unusual boy. Born a hedgehog from the waist up, he knows what it’s like to truly be an outcast. Even his amazing fiddle playing can’t help him fit in. So Hans flees to the forest with his herd of loyal pigs and only his music to keep him company. But then a most unusual thing happens: When Hans crosses paths with two kings with two lovely daughters, his luck starts to change. Will this lonely soul find true love after all? This lively and lyrical retelling of the classic Grimm’s tale, paired with lush, detailed illustrations, reminds us of the power of music, the importance of belonging, and the transformative effect of love.

"Our Friend Hedgehog feels like a modern-day Winnie the Pooh. It's so warm and full of joy and love. It's got classic written all over it." --Victoria Jamieson, Newbery Honor-winning author of Roller Girl Sometimes you make a friend, and it feels like you have known that friend your entire life. . . . Hedgehog lives on a teeny-tiny island with only her stuffed dog, Mutty, for company. When a great storm carries Mutty away, she embarks on a quest to find her friend. Following the trail of clues Mutty left behind, brave Hedgehog meets a wiggly Mole, a wordy Owl, a curmudgeonly Beaver, a scatterbrained Hen and Chicks, and a girl who's new to the neighborhood, Annika May. With bravery and teamwork, there's nothing that can stop these seven from finding Mutty, but along the way they discover something even more important: each other. The first book in a new series from Caldecott Honor winner Lauren Castillo, Our Friend Hedgehog: The Story of Us has the feel of a timeless classic, introducing an unforgettable cast of characters who will star in many more adventures to come.
