Quills: The Hungry Little Porcupine by Shibani Alter [Hardcover]

As the sun begins to set behind the Himalayan foothills, a little porcupine wakes up to the sound of his grumbling tummy. All that’s left in the kitchen of his burrow is an old turnip. So, as the forest goes to sleep, Quills’s journey begins. Soon, he is joined by his dear pals—Pig, Monkey, Mongoose, and Goat—and together they set off in search of tubers, loquats, mushrooms, and wild strawberries. But something scary lurks in the darkness. As the team scampers across a fallen oak, down a grassy ridge, and through a forest of rhododendrons and a field of pink thunder lilies, a villainous leopard looms in the shadows, ready to pounce on the creatures and devour them. Can Quills and his friends escape its wicked clutches and gather enough delicious treats to satiate their hungry stomachs?

Heartwarming and suspenseful in equal measure, Quills is a delightfully illustrated story about the comfort of good friends and the joys of sharing food and memories with your loved ones.
