Winner at the 2013 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards. A magic ball has
mysteriously appeared and will help to weave the most beautiful
friendship between the animals of the forest.
One morning, a hedgehog wakes up to find a mysterious ball of wool
caught in his prickles. Why would he want a ball of wool?, he wonders in
dismay. His friend the spider, who was an expert knitter, encouraged him
to start knitting, teaching him all the keys and secrets to making a
perfect sweater. Fascinated, all of the forest animals come to his house
and the hedgehog happily knits something for each of his visitors.
CLICKETY-CLICK, CLICKETY-CLICK... A stitch here, a stitch there... When
the hedgehog stops knitting, he realizes something amazing--the ball of
wool is magic!
A charming tale of friendship, generosity and kindness that will bring
out the best in young readers by encouraging them to help others.
