Hedgehog's Secret

(4) PS Translated by Elisabeth Kallick Dyssegaard. Hedgehog is so busy cooking and cleaning, she has no time for the friends who come visiting. Finally, she reveals the secret reason for her preparations: she has a new baby, and she wants everyone to help celebrate. The rhyming text is often clumsy and strained; however, the delicately colored illustrations, which hint at the unusual surprise, are easy on the eye.
