A Handful of Happiness - Ninna, the tiny hedgehog with a big heart

@2@@20@The heart-warming story of how a tiny hedgehog helped one man find hope@18@.@19@@21@ @3@@2@ 'Could you look after it for a couple of days? . . .' So begins the extraordinary friendship between veterinarian Massimo, who is at a low spot in his life, and a tiny, orphaned hedgehog. Only a few days old, covered with soft, white quills and mewling quietly, this little creature will turn around his life forever. Through the sheer force of Ninna's personality - curious, playful, affectionate - and the sudden, unexpected paternal protectiveness he feels nursing her back to health, Massimo reconnects with the world - and finally begins to feel like home. @3@@2@ But as Ninna wakes from her first hibernation, she grows up, like any teenager, longing for freedom. A creature of the wild, she craves the free range of the woods beyond Massimo's house. Massimo must accept that Ninna is ready to move on . . . but one little hedgehog saved and released into her natural habitat is a new beginning for Massimo: setting up a sanctuary for the injured, orphaned, fragile - but with a will to live so strong it is truly contagious.@3@@2@ @20@@18@A Handful of Happiness @19@is their funny and life-affirming story - a celebration of our favourite prickly wildlife creature, which will make you laugh and cry. Perfect for animal lovers and fans of @18@A Streetcat Named Bob@19@, @18@Arthur, Finding Gobi @19@and Monty Don's @18@Nigel@19@.@21@@3@
