Tiana the hedgehog was afraid to show her soft side and always rolled into a ball of prickly spines when feeling scared. This caused her to accidentally prick Matt the moose when he just wanted to play.

Tiana went to the river and had fun playing with Matt the moose, Rufus the raccoon, and other forest animals. She learned she doesn't always need her spines and can still be brave while showing her soft furry side.

2. There once was a little
hedgehog named Tiana.
She lived in the forest with
momma and papa hedgehog
and her brother and
sister hedgehogs.
She also lived in the forest with
other animals such as
squirrels, deers, owls,
raccoons, birds, moose, and
mice.
3. One day, while Tiana the hedgehog was playing
in the river, she saw Matt the moose. Matt the
moose looked big and scary because of his
horns. Matt the moose came up to Tiana the
hedgehog “Hi Tiana, can …” but before Matt the
moose had a chance to finish his thought, Tiana
rolled into a ball of prickly spines. She rolled
toward Matt the moose and pricked him. Matt the
moose felt confused because he was a gentle
moose. He had no idea why Tiana the hedgehog
used her prickly spines on him. All he wanted to
do was ask Tiana the hedgehog to play in the
river with him. Feeling sad and rejected, Matt the
moose left Tiana the hedgehog alone and went
back home.
4. She was as smart as a fox and caught onto things
very quickly. She was also as tough as nails,
brave, and was a fast hedgehog who ran up
molehills at the speed of lightening.
5. When Tiana the hedgehog became scared,
she defended herself by rolling into a ball of
prickly spines, but you see, Tiana the
hedgehog also had a furry, soft side and
sometimes she was afraid to show it
because she thought that not showing her
prickly spines meant that she was weak.
6. Tiana the hedgehog loved her family.
Mama hedgehog was beautiful and
nice and although Tiana the hedgehog
loved papa hedgehog, she was
sometimes scared of him because he
was big and strong and at times
became angry.
7. Because papa hedgehog
sometimes scared Tiana the
hedgehog, she didn’t know
what other forest animals
would scare her too. So
instead of being friendly, she
preferred to be as tough as
nails and showed her prickly
side to all the other forest
animals because she didn’t
know who to trust and was
afraid of getting hurt.
8. She used her spines so much with all
the forest animals that she got into
trouble and started to think that she
was a bad hedgehog.
9. Sometimes she pricked the
wrong person with her
spines. Tiana the hedgehog
would prick smaller animals
like Simon the squirrel,
Barbara the bird, and Milo
the mouse because it made
her feel even more tough.
Other forest animals like
Rufus the raccoon and Dale
the deer tried to be friends
with Tiana the hedgehog but
10. “Okay.” said Tiana the hedgehog. She then
went back to the river to see if Matt the
moose was there. Not only was Matt the
moose there, but so was Rufus the raccoon,
Simon the squirrel, Barbara the bird, Milo
the mouse, and Dale the deer. Tiana the
hedgehog went up to the forest animals and
asked them if she could join them. “Of
course!” said all of the forest animals. Tiana
the hedgehog spent the rest of the afternoon
in the river splashing away in the water and
having tons of fun.
11. In the tree, watching Tiana the
hedgehog, was Olivia the Owl. Olivia
saw how Tiana showed all of her
prickly spines even though she wasn’t
in any danger. Olivia the owl flew
down to Tiana the hedgehog.
“Hi. My name is Olivia the Owl. I saw
that you pricked Matt the moose with
your spines. It must be very tiring for
you to use your spines when there is
no need to use them.”
12. r.
The truth was that Tiana the hedgehog was
tired of always using her prickly spines but
was afraid that if she showed her soft, furry
side then she would look weak or
something bad would happen to her.
“I know why you use your spines as much
as you do” said Olivia the owl. “You don’t
know who to trust so you feel like you must
use your spines towards all the forest
animals. Using your spines makes you feel
strong and in control.”
13. Then, Olivia the owl noticed that Tiana the hedgehog
felt bad for using her spines. She saw Tiana the
hedgehog become sad. Tiana explained to the owl
that the forest animals thought she was a bad
hedgehog because of how often she used her prickly
spines.
Olivia the owl looked fondly at Tiana the hedgehog “ I
also want you to know Tiana, I don’t see you as bad.
Many good hedgehogs get into trouble. In fact, every
forest animal has gotten into trouble at one point in
their life.”
14. Then, Olivia the owl noticed that Tiana the
hedgehog felt bad for using her spines.
She saw Tiana the hedgehog become sad.
Tiana explained to the owl that the forest
animals thought she was a bad hedgehog
because of how often she used her prickly
spines.
Olivia the owl looked fondly at Tiana the
hedgehog “ I also want you to know Tiana, I
don’t see you as bad. Many good
hedgehogs get into trouble. In fact, every
forest animal has gotten into trouble at one
point in their life.”
15.
16. The owl went on to explain to Tiana that not
only is she not a bad hedgehog but she is a
brave and smart one too! Her prickly spines
had served her well and there was a time when
she needed them and there will be times in the
future when she may need them too. “You don’t
need to use your prickly spines all of the time.
Some of the forest animals don’t have to be
feared and you can show them your furry, soft
side while still being tough and strong.”
17. “I can?” said Tiana the hedgehog.
“Yes” said Olivia the owl. “Before you used your prickly
spines, I saw you talking with Matt the moose. What did he
say?”
“He asked me to play” said Tiana the hedgehog.
“Oh Fun! He and I played a game in the river the other day.”
said Olivia the owl.
“Really?” asked Tiana the hedgehog in a very surprised
voice. “But his horns are so scary!”
“Ah. They are just there to protect him, just like your spines
are there to protect you. Everyone has something to protect
them. Why don’t you give playing in the river with Matt the
moose a try?” said Olivia the owl.
18. “Okay.” said Tiana the hedgehog. She
then went back to the river to see if
Matt the moose was there. Not only
was Matt the moose there, but so was
Rufus the raccoon, Simon the squirrel,
Barbara the bird, Milo the mouse, and
Dale the deer. Tiana the hedgehog
went up to the forest animals and
asked them if she could join them. “Of
course!” said all of the forest animals.
Tiana the hedgehog spent the rest of
the afternoon in the river splashing
away in the water and having tons of
19. Tiana the hedgehog went home that
night and realized that she didn’t
always have to use her prickly
spines. She could still be as smart
as a fox, as tough as nails, brave,
fast AND show her soft, furry side!
Tiana the hedgehog went to sleep
and couldn’t wait to play tomorrow.
The End
