Cartwright, Ann

A curious young hedgehog journeys in search of winter instead of hibernating and discovers that season to be beautiful but cold and dangerous as well.

Lion is a proud bully until the other animals demonstrate for him the value of kindness and he changes his ways.

When he reads that a dodo's egg has been spotted on a distant island, greedy King Glut decides that he must have it for breakfast.

When Lion receives a postcard from a friend in Africa his homesickness is so deep that it's contagious, so he and four other animals escape the zoo and head for home.
