| Publisher Description: The humor is just absurd enough to make the picture-book set howl along with Hippo and Fluffy." -New York Times Book Review Fluffy the porcupine is unhappy with his name: "So he decided to become fluffier." He climbs a tree and pretends to be a cloud He even poses as a pillow. (His mother is not pleased when she sits on him.) When Fluffy meets a rhinoceros named Hippo, it puts his plight in perspective...and he makes a friend. This terrific tribute to self-acceptance--complete with the cutest porcupine pictures on the planet--is now part of a fun, 8" x 8" hardcover series about life lessons. Includes downloadable audio |
