Love You Always

 Mommy Hedgehog assures little Hedgie that her love is enduring, no matter what changes in this reassuring ode to the unconditional bond between a parent and child.

As Hedgie and his mommy walk home through the autumn leaves, Hedgie is full of questions. Everything is changing around him—what if he changes too? Would his mommy love him more if he were different? Will her love for him ever change? But wise and patient Mommy knows just how to reassure her little hedgehog that, however he might change, her love will always stay the same.

Heartwarming and tender, with charming artwork from Migy Blanco, this is the perfect gift to share and read aloud.
