Reviews

Their play assault on the bear, however, and the upshot of the hedgehog's courtship should provoke laughs from a broad range of ages. Fans of Mr. Squirrel will welcome his return and look forward to future seasons of fun...--Vicky Smith "Kirkus Reviews"
There is almost a kinetic energy to Meschenmoser's loose-lined, sketchy style, which works to great effect here in a story about the power of spring, and love sweet love, to wake one from a stupor.--Julie Danielson "Kirkus Reviews"
