An enjoyable read Marek. So funny how the whole household is mesmerised by the hedgehog.

We've got a book by Pam Ayres called The Last Hedgehog.

She starts in rhyme:

Farewell, farewell for what it's worth

From the final hedgehog left on earth.

She goes on to describe how the hedgehog's relatives met their demise.

'Drowned in rubbish, drowned in junk,

That's why our population's shrunk,

You threw down stuff you couldn't use,

The plastic rings from packs of booze,

Polluted, poisoned, burned and mowed,

And ran us over on the road.'

Sounds as though you are a hedgehog friend. Well done!
