Henry the Hedgehog has a few complaints about his family. One day when his father doesn't have time for what Henry wants to do, Henry decides to leave home. After he sneaks off, he meets lots of other animals and their families. Each animal thinks its family is best, but Henry doesn't want any of them for his own. (My favorite are the wolves, with all the aunts, uncles, etc. all in one big den.) Henry learns that families come in all shapes and sizes. He also learns to appreciate what he has.
This would be a good book to explore types of families and how none of them are perfect, but they may be "just right."
I won a copy from a giveaway sponsored by the publisher. It will be published on May 13, 2014.
