The Angry Hedgehog

Lex Hedgehog is building a tall stone tower when a surprise pop knocks it down. His quills rise like a storm, and his voice gets loud. With Emmitt Armadillo’s Anger Steps and a gentle repair with Alice Mole, Lex learns that anger is a real feeling, but it does not have to choose what his body does next. Little by little, he learns how to stop his body, move anger safely, and use words to fix what the big feeling hurt. This warm Hawkins Hollow read-aloud supports children as they explore anger, disappointment, safe release, self-control, repair, and the truth that feelings can be big while actions stay gentle.
