About this listen

Sometimes being quiet can make you feel different.

Hazel is a gentle little hedgehog who enjoys the quiet parts of the forest. While other animals are loud and busy, Hazel likes to listen, observe, and think.

At times she wonders if something is wrong with her for being so quiet.

But with a little encouragement and courage, Hazel begins to discover that being yourself is something to celebrate.

Hazel the Hedgehog Learns to Be Herself is a warm ShineSmart story that helps children understand that everyone shines in their own way.

Perfect for children ages 7–9, this story encourages confidence, self-acceptance, and the quiet strength that comes from being true to who you are.

Part of the ShineSmart Big Feelings, Growing Hearts series, helping children understand emotions, build confidence, and develop calm bodies and brave hearts.
