About this book
When a spiky stranger from the North Woods arrives in the Green Forest, Thornton W. Burgess introduces readers to Prickly Porky the Porcupine in this delightful animal adventure. Soon after his arrival, an early morning discovery sets off an intriguing forest mystery—a strange, headless, tailless creature whirling about on the hill near Prickly Porky's home, visible only at sunrise. What could it be?
This beloved children's tale brings together the unforgettable cast of characters from Burgess's celebrated Bedtime Story-Books, including Peter Rabbit, Buster Bear, Jimmy Skunk, Unc' Billy Possum, and Granny Reddy Fox.

Through humor, suspense, and heartwarming moments, Burgess masterfully weaves themes of friendship, courage, and loyalty into this classic animal fantasy.
Perfect for young listeners and anyone nostalgic for timeless children's literature, Adventures of Prickly Porky captures the charm and imagination that made Burgess a celebrated author of early 20th-century juvenile fiction. This audiobook brings the enchanted Green Forest to life, reminding audiences why these woodland tales have enchanted generations of children.
