Bookroo's summary

Isaac the Hedgehog wakes from his long winter slumber, famished and frazzled. As he scours the vibrant spring landscape for food, he faces a relentless challenge: every morsel he finds is snatched away by quicker creatures. But the stakes rise when Isaac becomes prey himself. Can his spiky defenses protect him from becoming a meal? This charming tale of survival and resilience unfolds amidst the colorful backdrop of spring, where every moment is a race against time and nature's whims. Will Isaac's determination and natural armor be enough to see him through?

From the publisher

Isaac the Hedgehog has had a long winter sleep. He’s just woken up and is having a bad hair day (well, you try looking perfect when you’ve been asleep for four months!). He’s also very hungry and in search of food. But every time he finds something to eat another creature gets there first. And when hedgehog himself becomes the target of a bigger animal’s appetite, will his spikes save him from becoming someone else’s breakfast? Rosie Wellesley’s beautiful illustrations capture all the joy and bounty of spring, its bright colours, optimism and hope.
