Description
What would you say if your friends and neighbors, in fact, everybody who visits your house, left their waste, leftover food, empty cans, used tissues, and unused refrigerators in the middle of your living room?
This is exactly what some of us do to the animals of the forest.
Grandpa Hedgehog was at the wrong place at the wrong time. A careless tourist tossed a rubbish bag out of a passing car. To Grandpa's biggest surprise, it landed right on his back and got stuck to his spiky quills! But hold on tight because this mishap sparked a chain of adventurous and downright humorous events! The unwanted gift came with an unpleasant odor... "Is it lawful to smell so awful?" Follow Grandpa as he rolls and tumbles through a series of comical encounters, turning a minor accident into a tale of laughter, friendship, and unexpected twists. Get ready for a spiky adventure that will leave you giggling and rooting for Grandpa all the way!

A wonderful children's picture book that skillfully addresses the issue of littering in a playful and humorous way. When a careless tourist discards a garbage bag that ends up on Grandpa Hedgehog's spiky quills, the story takes an unexpected turn filled with comical encounters. What I enjoyed most about this book is its ability to convey an important message about environmental responsibility while keeping young readers entertained. The illustrations and the lovable character of Grandpa Hedgehog make this a charming and educational read. The book's clever approach to turning a mishap into a spiky adventure not only captivates the imagination but also imparts a valuable lesson about the impact of human actions on the world around us.

Hold onto your quills, kiddos! Grandpa Hedgehog And The Big Black Bag is not your average bedtime story; it's a spiky adventure that'll have you rolling with laughter and rooting for Grandpa like never before. Picture this: a careless tourist, a rubbish bag, and Grandpa Hedgehog caught in the middle of a hilarious mess. Is it lawful to smell so awful? Well, Grandpa is about to find out! This book isn't just about teaching kids not to litter; it's a wild ride through unexpected twists, comical encounters, and the coolest hedgehog grandpa you'll ever meet. Why should you read it? Because Grandpa Hedgehog is not just a character; he's a spiky superhero fighting the forces of littering, and you don't want to miss a second of his uproarious journey. So, grab your spiky capes, your giggles, and get ready for a rollicking adventure with Grandpa Hedgehog!

This is a delightful story that teaches children, and hopefully, some adults to not litter and to respect the forests and woods where animals live. The illustrations were adorable. I love that at the end there is a letter from Mr. Owl about keeping the outdoors clean.
