Hurry Home, Hedgehog!

Reach for this book when the sun begins to set and your little one is still buzzing with the energy of the day. It is the perfect tool for transitioning from the high-stimulation activities of the afternoon to the quiet, rhythmic pace of a bedtime routine. Through the simple journey of a tiny hedgehog scurrying home, the book mirrors the child's own need to find safety and comfort at the end of the day. As Hedgehog travels through the natural world, the story emphasizes themes of belonging and the cycles of nature. The gentle prose and warm illustrations provide a sense of security, making it an excellent choice for toddlers who experience separation anxiety or struggle with the 'fomo' (fear of missing out) that often accompanies bedtime. It effectively models that everything in nature, including busy hedgehogs and busy children, eventually needs a soft place to land.
