Where is that tricky little Hedgie hiding?

Mossy by Jan Brett

Hi AJ boys and girls! Today we are going to read a story called Mossy, by one of our favourite authors Jan Brett. You will remember some of her stories like Hedgie's Surprise and The Gingerbread Baby that we read earlier this year. Of course you all know who we have to look for in all of the Jan Brett stories don't you? That's right, we have to keep our eyes open for that sneaky little Hedgie! 
Today I hid Hedgie on my bookshelf and made Norman look for him. It took him a minute, but he found him. Can you see Hedgie on the bookshelf? 

Jan Brett hides Hedgie in a very sneaky place in the story Mossy. In fact, Norman and I had to read the story twice to find him! Let's see if you can find where he's hidden - don't worry if you can't find him, I'll show you a picture of where he's hiding in the story after we have read it together because it's a tricky one!

Wasn't that a lovely story? Were you able to find Hedgie?
If you found him, good for you! This was one of the trickiest places to find Hedgie in all the Jan Brett stories. If you weren't able to find him, let me show you where he was:
He was hidden at the top of a page disguised as an insect!

Because we love Jan Brett so much, I thought you might like to look at her website. It has TONS of amazing stories, activities, and videos for you to look at. I am including 3 things from her website that I thought you might enjoy, but make sure to take a look yourself because there are hours and hours of fun to be had on her website!
