Hugo's Prickly Feelings
Hugo the Hedgehog has some very prickly feelings.
When things feel too loud, too frustrating, or too unfair, Hugo's spikes come out before he knows what to do. He wants to be kind. He wants to join in. But sometimes his big feelings make it hard to stay calm, use his words, or let others get close.
With gentle support, Hugo begins to learn that feelings are not bad - even the prickly ones. He discovers simple ways to pause, notice what his body is telling him, and choose what to do next.
Hugo's Prickly Feelings is a warm and supportive picture book for children who experience frustration, anger, overwhelm, or big emotions. Through a relatable animal character and child-friendly language, this story helps young readers understand emotional regulation, coping skills, and the power of repairing after hard moments.
Perfect for parents, teachers, school counselors, therapists, and social-emotional learning lessons.
This book can help children:
Recognize big feelings in their bodies
Understand that all feelings are okay
Practice calming strategies
Build self-awareness and self-control
Learn how to repair and reconnect after prickly moments
A helpful resource for classrooms, counseling offices, therapy spaces, and home libraries.
