My kids loved this book. They giggled the whole way through. We enjoyed the narration as well, very well produced.

Fun book with a good message! My 6-year-old enjoyed it, and we’re looking forward to seeing the illustrations.

This is a cute story with musical background and a narrator who lays on a thick French accent for the hedgehog. Kids will want to read and look at the pictures at the same time, so I recommend this for a talking book. I think it's a great story for preschoolers, especially since nothing is funnier than underwear at that age.

This was a fun little book about being yourself and doing the things we like, even if others don't do those things.
The narrator was a bit hard to understand at some points for my kiddos but I liked the way he narrated and the story was really cute!
The hedgehogs were fun and it was a really good story line!

Hedgehogs Don't Wear Underwear, written by Marissa Valdez and narrated by Tim Campbell, is the story of Jacques. a hedgehog who has a secret... He wears underwear. The problem is, Hedgehogs Don't Wear Underwear, and he has decided he has to tell the other hedgehogs.
I loved this book! It was hilarious, and I can see little ones loving it. Although the story was humorous, it also had a message, about accepting yourself for who you are, and being willing to accept others for who they are. This is another book that I am excited to share with the preschoolers that I work with.
Thank you to NetGalley, and to the author, publisher, and narrator of this book for an ALC in exchange for an honest review.

The narrator has a French accent, but super easy to follow along with. The story is super cute as it follows Jacque, a hedgehog who wears underwear. My 5 year old thought this was super funny and wanted to keep listening to it. This is a great book to have kids read and create the image/story in their minds.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

We loved this story. I was funny and well written my 2 toddlers LOVED the French accent. And we all laughed while Jacques faced his fear of being himself.

The narrator was great. Overall, the book was well written and I did really enjoy it. Thank you for this advance reading copy!

Such a fun read. The storyline and audio production were engaging and well done. The story follows Jacques, a little hedgehog with a big secret. You see Jacques wears underwear and is afraid that when the other hedgehogs find out, they will make fun of him. This book has a great message about staying true to oneself, being brave and having the courage to stand in your truthiness while also exploring the differences that makes us unique and bounds us. The narration on this was amazing. Tim Campbell did an amazing job narrating these characters. The kiddos loved the French accent, and we listened to this audio multiple times. They absolutely loved this story. One of their favorite lines was "Under who? Is that like a hat for your butt? They seem to crack up at this line. This book was funny, clever, easy to follow, engaging and had a great plot that was executed brilliantly. This is a great book for young kids.

A cute story narrated in a French accent to show readers that it's okay to be a little different. And when you put yourself out there you'll find that you're not so different after all.

My 5 year old daughter absolutely loves how silly this story is and the narrator made it such a fun listen! The fact that it teaches a lesson made it that much better!

this was such a cute little read my 5 year old son loved it . !! we have listened to it more then once ! Great job

I listened to this book on audio and it was super cute! The narrator had a French accent, was animated and engaging. The story line is adorable and a fun way to show kids to be themselves and be open to sharing their uniqueness. Highly recommend for the younger kiddos!

Thank you to NetGalley and McMillan Audio for an Advanced Listener Copy of this adorable book!

A playful book that will capture young readers with it's storytelling. A story about courage and friendship, it will keep little ones entertained while teaching acceptance. A charming story that invokes laughter and curiosity, I tested the audible on two little brothers, 5 & 7. They both enjoyed it and requested to hear it over again multiple times. I plan to add to my library upon its release.
Thank you NewGalley for the opportunity to listen to this as an audible for my honest review.

I received a copy of this audiobook from netGalley for a honest review.

What a cute little story about being different and the fears that brings up. The hedgehog is French and has the cutest little accent! I'm not sure of all the French words but it was fun and funny to listen to.

This was a very cute and silly story about being true to yourself.

I thought the narrator did a wonderful job with the hedgehogs' french accents.

Story 3.5/5
Audio 5/5
Cuteness 4/5
overall 4/5

This comes out 3/31/25
I will be referring this audio to my library.
If you are wondering what are somethings that my child can listen to without turning on the tv this should be your next listen.

Jacques loves wearing his underwear. He feels like he is more supported and satisfied with them. The problem with him loving to wear his underwear was that he was nervous that the other hedgehogs would make fun of him.
This was a cute and fun story. The audio was fantastic, the Narrator did such a good job. Kids would have fun listening to this book while playing. This is a fun way to have something in the background without turning on the TV.
I do feel like this book is more for older kids who understand the point of underwear. I say this because the book is meant to be silly and my two-year-old thought the voice was entertaining but did not understand the jokes.
The target audience for this book would be 4 and 5-year-olds.

Thank you to Netgalley and the author/publisher for a copy of this audiobook.

The narrator was fantastic and I just know kids would love listening to this story. The characters were cute and the message behind it was great for a children's book. Overall a very cute book for school age students.

Oh man we wanted to like this one and the narrator was great but it was going nowhere. Thank you NetGalley for the ARC. Thought it would have more jokes and not be completely just about underwear

Hedgehogs Don't Wear Underwear
by Marissa Valdez
Narrated by Tim Campbell

Hedgehogs Don't Wear Underwear is a delightful story about Jacques, the Hedgehog. Jacques has a secret. He wears underwear. He's afraid that the others will make fun of him if they find out that he wears underwear because, let's face it, hedgehogs don't wear underwear. Once Jacques allows his secret to come out, he finds acceptance and comes to realize that everyone has their own unique things that they like, just like Jacques. Jacques finds acceptance with the other hedgehogs.

What was really cute about this story was that my kids listened and understood the message that the author was conveying. We discussed the book and how Jacques felt, and it was a good "reading is learning" moment. The narration was well done and brought Jacques and the other characters to life. Thanks you to NetGalley, the author and Macmillan Audio for the chance to listen to and review this delightful ARC!
