Spike the Sleepy Porcupine

Spike the porcupine shuffles along with sleepy eyes and a soft, twitchy nose. His shiny black eye twinkles with curiosity as he pauses, little paws planted gently on the ground. The spiky quills fan out across his back like rows of pointy feathers, each one waiting for a splash of color.

Long prickles and tiny feet give Spike a funny, bumpy look. The round shape of his belly makes him seem huggable—if you watch out for those quills! With a wiggle of his whiskers, Spike looks around, ready for his quiet stroll in the forest.

Fun Fact!

A porcupine might chatter its teeth loudly as a warning to predators to stay away.
