It’s
fall
, and
Hedgehog
notices that the air is cooler, and that the leaves are turning from green to red, orange, and yellow. He sees
Badger, Squirrel, and Mouse
carrying food and wonders where they’re going with it. He can’t find his friend
Frog
, who’s hiding at the bottom of the pond for the winter. Then he sees
Crane and Heron
, who are flying south toward warmer weather, and his
bug
friends tell him that they’re hiding underground for the winter. Even
Bear
has already gone into his den to sleep. But there are some animals who haven’t gone away, too—Hedgehog sees
Fox, Hare, Beaver
and the
cardinals
. Hedgehog learns that each animal has its own way of taking care during the
winter
—and soon, it’s time for Hedgehog to go home and take his winter nap, too! Includes
sweet, detailed illustrations
that are full of
humorous details
; fun facts about
; and a fun
activity
.
