It gives me great delight today to welcome back, children’s author, Lynette Creswell, to Patricia’s Pen. This time Lynette has come along to tell my readers all about her brand-new hoglet book Hoglets’ Birthday Surprise. Without further ado, it’s over to Lynette.
Hoglets’ Birthday Surprise
Lynette Creswell
It’s almost Christmas and a busy time of year for everyone. For some it’s getting those presents wrapped and Christmas cards written but for me it’s an extra special time. Last December I published my first ever children’s book, Hoglets’ Christmas Magic and introduced two cute hoglets, Prickles and Primrose. The hoglets were a magical success and I earned myself a new following of young hogleteers.
As a writer I wanted to continue engaging with my readers and leave a lasting impression. The positive feedback I received for Hoglets’ Christmas Magic far exceeded anything I had imagined.
Teachers, grandparents and parents raved about the story, leaving me compelled to write more.
I received wonderful comments such as….
I have a little boy in class who reads your book throughout the year. He says it makes him feel better when he’s sad.
My granddaughter sits wide-eyed with wonder when I read your story to her, (she’s 4 years old). It’s her favourite bedtime story and chooses it every time she visits.
With those comments in mind, I set out to create a brand-new story focusing around kindness and acceptance.
Once again, my talented illustrator brought my story to life, and in October this year I published the second in the hoglet series – Hoglets’ Birthday Surprise.
Hoglets’ Birthday Surprise is a spellbinding adventure for children 6+. This time Prickles and Primrose are out in the woods when they stumble across… a witch.

It’s the Summer holidays.
Hoglets, Prickles and Primrose are busy exploring when they stumble across… a witch!
Terrified she’ll eat them for breakfast, the hoglets prepare to escape but soon realise the witch isn’t scary at all.
Willow the witch is lonely and in need of a friend.
Can the hoglets help her?
