Spiky the Hedgehog Comes to the Rescue!

Deep in the heart of Innisfree Forest, a friendly little hedgehog named Spiky lives under an old log. Spiky has wonderful friends: Susie the squirrel, Davy the dormouse, and Freddy the frog. They love playing games together, but Spiky’s sharp spikes often cause accidents, leaving him feeling sad and left out. From bursting balloons to tearing kites, Spiky just can’t seem to catch a break.

One day, when Suzie’s birthday party is in jeopardy, Spiky’s spikes turn out to be just what his friends need to save the day! By carrying the party food on his back, Spiky helps his friends and realizes that everyone has unique talents that make them special.
