"Omg! This book is absolutely the sweetest! And the drawings are super cute. Loved it, both me and my child, although I’m sure we each saw something entirely different in this lovely, lovely little book."

"It was a great learning experience for a child, so that they can accept THEIR differences and understand that just because their different doesn't mean they can't play and have fun with others. I thought that it was quite well written and easy to understand. Bonus is that it helped my granddaughter recognize words that were beyond her current reading level, always a plus when learning to read."

"My four year old loved it and I love that it helps teach self love and acceptance. My baby girl loved it."

"The Prickly Little Porcupine is a colorful and interesting book that celebrates differentness and friendship.  Jill Horton’s story could help many young people gain more body-positive views, and the book could be used by librarians, teachers, and caregivers to help build self-esteem." 

"This little porcupine holds a special place in my heart! The message of the book is genuine and sweet in that self-acceptance and confidence are amazing tools we can have for ourselves. I loved reading this and my three year old loved the pictures!"

"The illustrations for this book are extremely cute and fun! The story has a great message that is served in a way that is digestible for kids."

"I found this story to be well written and cute. My toddler niece loved this story and I enjoyed that she learned that different is just different, not better and not worse."

"This book has colorful illustrations that engage kids to look and become absorbed in the story. This book also addresses asking for forgiveness by saying it's okay to make mistakes and it's okay to have a bad day. Most importantly, it shows inclusion. All in all, I loved this book. This book will be a delight in classrooms everywhere."
