Summary
There were so many things that Tortoise wanted to do.
So many games to play and rocks to climb.

Tortoise was stuck.
Tortoise was not happy.
Tortoise is not having a good day and now he’s stuck in a hole and is far too upset for hugs. Hedgehog sits and waits and then makes Tortoise laugh – taking the time to let the moment pass, and acknowledge how Tortoise feels.
Critic Reviews
McLaughlin's gentle story and Dunbar's delicate and emotive illustrations are the perfect combination to reassure little ones and help them understand their feelings of anger, frustration and upset. Simply beautiful.
