Bookroo's summary

On a bustling farm, chickens are on a mission to build a towering wall. Their target? A seemingly harmless hedgehog they suspect of causing trouble. As winter passes, their construction grows, but when spring arrives, unexpected consequences unfold. What secrets does the wall hold, and is the hedgehog truly a threat? Discover the surprising twists in this tale of suspicion and discovery.

From the publisher

The chickens at the farm are building a wall, and no one is quite sure why. But they know one thing: the hedgehog that wandered in must be trouble. So all winter they build and build, until they have a wall that towers over the barn. When spring comes, though, they find that everything hasn’t gone quite according to plan . . .
