Hoghedge the Mindful Hedgehog is a gentle story about friendship, connection and the natural world, encouraging children to slow down, explore their senses and find moments of calm in the world around them.

When Hoghedge's friend Mouse feels worried and her thoughts become fuzzy and full, he helps her find ways to feel calmer. Together, they explore the sights, sounds, smells, tastes and textures of the natural world, discovering how simple mindful moments, gentle breathing and friendship can help us feel more settled.

Perfect for sharing from babyhood onwards, little ones can explore the illustrations and enjoy the story, discovering new layers of meaning as they grow. Its gentle message encourages children to notice the world around them, explore their senses and find moments of calm in their everyday lives.

A story to share together, revisit as children grow and enjoy for years to come - at bedtime, in the classroom or whenever you need a quieter moment.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

GEORGIE KAY

I’m a yoga teacher, bodyworker and wellbeing practitioner supporting children and adults through movement and mindfulness. ‘Hoghedge The Mindful Hedgehog’ is my first children’s book, inspired by a love of nature and a hope that stories can gently remind us to slow down, notice the world around us and find moments of calm.

ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATOR

OLIVIA CHANDLER

I’m an illustrator who believes children should explore freedom in expression, not perfection. With wobbly lines, happy accidents, and mixed mediums, I create art that hums with feeling and invites children (and adults!) to imagine, feel and add their own marks to the story.
