Porcupine Named Fluffy

What do you do when your name is Fluffy, and you are a porcupine? You become the lovable hero of this story. Not only that, but you find a unique friend that is just as unusual, and special, as a porcupine that might not be as fluffy as his name might imply. Told with humor, and Lynn Munsinger's wonderful and sweet illustrations, this is one for everyone's collection.

A Favorite from my childhood. When Fluffy, a young porcupine, discovers just how inappropriate his name is h does everything from rolling in shaving cream and feathers to trying to become a cloud in an attempt to make it fit. Complete with humorous illustrations this touching tale reminds us to simply be who we are.

A porcupine named Fluffy is happier with his name after he meets a similarly misnamed rhinoceros.
