Synopsis

Spike, a little hedgehog, wakes up one morning to find all his prickles have vanished! Embarrassed, he tries to cover himself with various items—a lampshade, a teacup, even a smelly sock—but nothing works, and the other animals can't stop giggling. Then, he discovers a bunch of balloons that whisk him away on an unexpected adventure, leading to a delightful surprise and a prickly party with his friends.
