"Though Herbie is unquestionably an adorable hedgehog, Poh deftly captures a child's mixed feelings about separation and exploration. She reminds young readers that separation from loved ones does not mean being forsaken. The story's autumn backdrop mirrors Herbie's transition into independence as he enters the world with curiosity. Poh's lively illustrations sweep readers into the young hedgehog's exciting adventure, and though they reveal that Herbie's imagination is a little grandiose, they also deeply respect his burgeoning autonomy. A charming story that explores a child's newfound independence." - Kirkus Reviews
