Sep 16, Elaine rated it really liked it Shelves: This is a really sweet, gentle story with brilliant illustrations about a young echidna who is worried that he still has no spines. He goes and asks other animal friends for advice but, even though he does as they say, he still has no spines. It is a story of never giving up, resilience and perseverance but, in the end is more about looking out for the positives in the situation and learning to be patient.
As a teacher or parent, this story has a great moral message and is also beautifull Aww!!! As a teacher or parent, this story has a great moral message and is also beautifully illustrated.

It could be used to help introduce the images of some of the Australian animals and as stimuli for more art work. With slightly older children, it could also be used as a stimulus for research into the different animals. It is written in a very easy to relate to manner and could also be used for discussions and circle time. This is a delightful book for children that is lovely to share and enjoy. I was gifted a copy of this book by the publisher, via NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed the story, but the ending seems "unfinished" to me.

He's great at burrowing and ant-hunting but when it comes to spine-growing, he seems to lack the skill. This delightful, gentle story is about the importance of patience and perseverance. Mar 11, Nola rated it really liked it Shelves: This is a sweet book with an Australian theme. Pipp Puggle is the only other baby echidna in his class who doesn't have his spikes yet. He asks his bushland friends for advice a koala, wombat, kangaroo, and kookaburra , but none of their suggestions work.
He has to learn patience and discovers there is at least one advantage of not getting his spines too early.

Sep 19, Di rated it really liked it Shelves: This is such a sweet little book in the same vein as books by Mem Fox and Jackie French. The story is sweet including many animals from the Australian bush and is a lesson in patience and perseverance, even though it is unresolved in the end.
The illustrations are very appealing; gentle and extremely well done. Sep 14, Crazy4Books rated it really liked it. I decided to start reading childrens books because my little ones almost 2 and we have fun reading together. I loved the moral of this story and I think thats one of the most important things when choosing a good childrens book. I also liked that we see all kinds of different animals but a bit more information on each animal would have been a nice addition. However, I understand the need to keep the story short.

Ive noticed that brigther colors tend to capture my little ones attention more but I still thought the illustrations were cute. I appreciate that the images werent too busy which gives my toddler a chance to focus and absorb one thing at a time. Dec 07, Sean Harding rated it liked it. Nicely illustrated and told story, anthropomorphic and with the lesson of patience everything will be OK and you will grow into the person you are if you wait patiently.
It also seems to have an undergirding of we are all different and that is fine too. All nice lessons to learn, to discuss and to think over, even if our culture seems to differ from these thoughts on many occasions. It really is a civil war in our culture accepting the differences in each other vs you really need to assimilate a Nicely illustrated and told story, anthropomorphic and with the lesson of patience everything will be OK and you will grow into the person you are if you wait patiently.
It really is a civil war in our culture accepting the differences in each other vs you really need to assimilate and be like everyone else. Feb 13, Brydie Wright rated it really liked it. I had been excited to read Aleesah Darlison's debut picture book, after reading a blog on how the story came about and its journey to publication. Firstly, I love the fact that it introduces the reader to the term 'puggle' for baby echidna. The alliteration in the title is perfect. My son and I enjoyed reading this book and interacting with the story and its beautiful illustrations.
I wish we could have found out more of Puggle's journey but the moral to the story is patience, a valuable lesson I had been excited to read Aleesah Darlison's debut picture book, after reading a blog on how the story came about and its journey to publication.

Sep 14, O. Book Reviews rated it it was amazing. A cute, fun illustrated story about a baby echidna named Pipp Puggle who is getting frustrated that his spines haven't come in yet. All of his puggle friends have their spines and he wants his too. He goes to all of his friends, various other Australian animals, to help him figure out how to make his spines grow. In the end he has to learn patience and his spines do start to grow. This is such an adorable story and it teaches patience, grit, accepting yourself and others. I would recommend this book for all small children and as a bed time story.
It teaches children "waiting and not getting upset and believing good things will happen. This book has everything I look for in a children's book. Beautiful art, an entertaining story, and some sort of lesson or moral. This book is cute and funny while also being loaded with great messages. Pipp works so hard to try to get his spines and he never gives up.
In the meantime his mother is encouraging him to be patient and telling him he is fine the way he is. I love that this book introduces a lot of different animals, ones that are not common in my neck of the woods. There is a kookaburra who encourages Pipp to laugh, a kangaroo who teaches him to hop, a wombat, a koala and many more.
Pipp the puggle is the cutest thing ever, he is so squishy, I'm sure kids will love him. I have no issues with this book. I received a free copy of this book in return for my honest review.

Puggle's Problem
He goes off in search of answers, which happen to be beautiful illustrated. He talks to other animals, and makes some new friends. On the way he learns more about the other animals, and himself. While he never gives up, he finally understands that sometimes we need to wait for things to come, and that some things happen at different times.
I love that this book can be used to get a large variety of ideas across to children, but it never comes across as preachy- only as a gentle picture book. Oct 05, Carla Johnson-Hicks rated it really liked it Shelves: This story is a wonderful little book. Puggle is an echidna who does not have his spikes. Others do, hid family and friends, but not Puggle. He goes and asks his friends what they did to get their particular gift and they told him.

He tried all sorts of things, but his spikes still did not grow. They cannot tolerate overheating, and when the weather turns chilly they are prone to catching colds. They can also be sensitive to humid climates, and taking them outdoors in extremely hot or cold weather can tire them or cause illness. The puggle was bred to have a longer muzzle than the pug, and though they do not have the same extreme respiratory issues that fully brachycephalic pugs do, some puggles do have breathing problems. These issues may be limited to snoring or they may reverse-sneeze or wheeze after they have exerted themselves.
Due to their beagle lineage they are extremely energetic, and they may want to play more than is good for them, which can exacerbate their breathing problems. Nostril enlargement and palate trimming surgery can work wonders for brachycephalic dogs like pugs and puggles. Unless they are well-trained, puggles can be loud dogs. They are alert and will tend to bark to announce strangers or visitors to the home, though their friendliness prevents them from being good guard dogs.
Some puggles may also howl, a trait that is common in beagles. Early training is essential to make sure that a puggle does not turn into a noisy nuisance. Some puggles, especially the ones that have more wrinkles in their face, are prone to skin infections.
Pipp Puggle is a tiny echidna with a big problem. Although he’s good at doing lots of things, like: hunting ants, curling into a ball, and building terrifically tidy burrows, Pipp’s spines simply will not come. Tired of waiting for them to appear, Pipp sets out on a quest to. Puggle's Problem has 25 ratings and 18 reviews. Maya said: This story is simlpy beautiful. The lesson of the story is a very importand one, since we all.
While a puggle's muzzle is not as short and wrinkled as the muzzle of a pug, the wrinkles in its face still need to be cleaned on a regular basis. Skin infections can be avoided by cleaning the wrinkles with a damp cloth once a day. You can use a gentle liquid cleaning and drying agent specially for this purpose.
