Otis Paul loves being in the garden. He observes the flowers and butterflies. Unexpectedly, an unusual creature appears one day from under the garden leaves. It's Harry the Echidna, and he wants to make friends, but he is different. Otis Paul and Harry go on a journey to explore ways of making Harry look the same as other Echidnas and become firm friends along the way. Some children's reviews of the original draft: ""Dear Aunt Barb, Me and my brother enjoyed your book. Your book is good, it involved a good plot. I like how you make an interesting problem and solution. The illustrations are good too. Please write more books."" - Thirandu and Inuka ""Dear Barbara, I thought the book was cute and interesting and I especially like the pictures. I also had fun colouring in."" - Aesha, aged 81/2 years ""Dear Barbara, I really enjoyed reading the book, colouring in the pages and I also think it is a good idea having spare pages to draw your own pictures. I can't wait to read your next book. PS. Your pics look professionally done."" - Khadija, aged 11 years
