Description
x"A silly, entertaining tale of a very prickly friendship." --Kirkus A prickly tale about an unlikely friendship between a hopeful and chatty porcupine who attempts to befriend a cactus in the desert. Perfect for fans of I Need a Hug by Aaron Blabey and Goodnight Already by Jory John! On a long and lonely desert walk, chatty and outgoing Porcupine discovers quiet Cactus and couldn't be happier. These two spiky specimens are sure to have tons in common! But when Porcupine tries to get to know his new pal, Cactus doesn't say a word. After a miscommunication, Porcupine realizes Cactus is more than shy, he's downright prickly! Will these new buddies manage to mend their friendship? With witty and humorous text from acclaimed author Katie Frawley and comical and expressive art from award-winning illustrator Alex Willmore, Porcupine and Cactus is a funny and endearing story of two unlikely friends. Perfect for fans of Aaron Blabey, Drew Daywalt, and Jory John. "Bright, funny, cartoonish illustrations complement the bubbly text as the porcupine . . . Children will delight in the realization that they know more about the cactus than the porcupine does and will laugh out loud at the misunderstandings that ensue." --Kirkus
