Book
I can do that too : a big hedgehog and little hedgehog adventure / Britta Teckentrup ; translated from the German by Nicola Stuart.
""I can do that, too!" tells of children's desire to be able to do everything that adults do. And about the fact that adults often don't know how to deal with this, because on the one hand they don't want to discourage children, but on the other hand they don't want to let them try things they are still too small to do. In this book, Britta Teckentrup shows that children can already do some of the things adults do, but often in a slightly different way, and so in the end the result is something different - and the realization that both can learn from each other. The warm and atmospheric illustrations make it easy for adults to talk to children about their abilities and the process of learning things"-- Provided by publisher.

Meeting all kinds of animal friends in the woods, Little Hedgehog wants to do what they can do, but learns it's ok if he's just not up to the task, in this adorable story about big dreams and small victories. - Random House, Inc.
The beloved hedgehog duo returns in a charming story about big ambitions and small victories.
Itâs a busy day in the woods for Big and Little Hedgehog, who meet all kinds of animal friends, each of whom can do something special that Little Hedgehog wants to do. Ladybug climbs a tree and jumps off a branch; mole digs a hole; fish swim in the pond. Sometimes Little Hedgehog is successful and sometimes he learns that heâs just not up to the task. As they find their way home with the help of a turtle, an owlâs hoot sends Little Hedgehog off to sleep with one last cry of âI can do that too!â
Filled with Teckentrupâs signature, beautifully textured artwork, this gentle book helps kids understand that itâs okay to want to do things, and itâs okay if youâre not quite ready.
