HEDGEHOG OR ECHIDNA
Illustrated by Amandine Thomas, Published by Hachette 2025
A fun rhyming picture book with bright and engaging illustrations that teaches children about animals who look similar, but have unique differences, from acclaimed author Ashleigh Barton and illustrator Amandine Thomas.
When a hedgehog and an echidna meet and realise they have many similarities, they take a look at other animal pairs around the world who look the same but aren't: crocodiles and alligators, llamas and alpacas, rabbits and hares, and more. Join Echidna and Hedgehog as they meet animals who look similar to one another - and learn to tell the difference between them!
"Fun, informative and very very moreish, Hedgehog or Echidna? is a unique take on ‘same same but not’ comparisons perfectly pitched to audiences 3 – 7 years of age."
