"A Porcupine Named Fluffy" by Helen Lester (author), Lynn Munsinger (illustrator)

"The humor is just absurd enough to make the picture-book set howl along with Hippo and Fluffy.” –New York Times Book Review

Fluffy the porcupine is unhappy with his name: “So he decided to become fluffier.” He climbs a tree and pretends to be a cloud! He even poses as a pillow. (His mother is not pleased when she sits on him.) When Fluffy meets a rhinoceros named Hippo, it puts his plight in perspective…and he makes a friend.
