Elmore is a porcupine desperate to make friends. But it is hard to seek closeness with others when you’re covered with spikes that shoot off your back every so often. Elmore suffers rejection and heartbreak, but the goodness of his forest community ultimately shines through as the animals find a way to connect with this prickly bundle of love.
Join Holly Hobbie, the creator of the Toot & Puddle series, as she reads from her latest picture book Elmore – the warmhearted porcupine sure to steal the hearts of a new generation of Holly Hobbie fans!
