Bookroo's summary

Horace and Hattie, the best hedgehog friends, face a prickly problem—they can't hug! As the seasons change, they embark on a whimsical quest to find a way to embrace without the spikes. Will their friendship lead to a creative solution, or will their spiky nature keep them apart? Join their charming journey to discover if a perfect hug is possible.

From the publisher

Horace and Hattie are hedgehogs, and the very best of friends. Together, they make daisy chains, splash in puddles, and have tea parties. But there is one thing they can’t do–hug! They are just too spiky. Throughout the seasons, these two hedgehogs will try many different ways of hugging. But will Horace and Hattie find a hug that feels just right?
