Ouch by Ragnhild Scamell

When an apple falls onto Hedgehog's prickly back and sticks, it seems as if there will be no way to remove it.

Ouch! is a delightful tale that follows Hedgehog as she asks her animal friends to help her remove the apple -- only to have more items stick to her back. Though it seems there will be no end to Hedgehog's troubles Ouch!, illustrated by Michael Terry, ends on a sweet note.

Karma Wilson - Bear series






Bear Feels Sick was the first in the series of Bear books I found by Karma Wilson and wonderfully illustrated by Jane Chapman.

In each book, Bear's friends--hare, wren, raven, badger, mole, mouse, gopher-- care for Bear in some way. The consistency of cast members in this series of books is a visual and storytelling treat about the variety and constancy of friendship.









Books in the series:

Bear Snores On

Bear Wants More

Bear Stays up For Christmas

Bear's New Friend

Bear Feels Sick

Bear Feels Scared

Bear's Loose Tooth

Bear Says Thanks
