A fox and a hedgehog enjoy each other’s company and and wax nostalgic about all the things they like about each other.

This is a sweet sing-songy text that would be charming at bedtime. I thought the relationship between the two animals was enough confusing that it was distracting - were they parent and child, siblings, friends?
