"The Old Hedgehog" by Olga Amelianenko is a philosophical tale about how important it is to appreciate your uniqueness and be able to simply be yourself. The main character of the fairy tale is an old hedgehog who dreamed of being either a bird, a fish, or a butterfly, and after he defeated the fox, he became proud of his needles. The work is part of a series of books for preschool children “It Was - It Wasn’t”, created by the creative tandem of fairytale therapist Olga Amelyanenko and a group of artists. Funny fairy tale characters will help kids understand the world of feelings and emotions, and colorful illustrations will make reading fairy tales brighter and more interesting.
