Book excerpt: A little girl sees a hedgehog in her garden and tells her friend. They wonder if its male or female and have to catch it. One of the girls reads a wildlife book about what hedgehogs eat and tries to keep it in the garden. Once they find out what it is, they name it and make a home for it. But magical things happen only when they have been good all day, when they pick up the hedgehog, as it is a magic hedgehog.
