Not Recommended

The following books are not recommended as they contain very outdated information about hedgehogs. Some of which may actually kill your hedgehog in time.

Guide to Owning an African Pygmy Hedgehog : Housing, Feeding, Breeding, Exhibition, Health Care, by Dennis Kelsey-Wood - available in paperback: This book may appear under may other names, all written by the same author. Each of these books are old and do contain information which is harmful to your hedgehog. If you buy these books, do so just for the pictures and not for the information they contain.
Hedgehogs: How to Take Care of Them and Understand Them (A Complete Pet Owner's Manual), by Matthew M. Vriends, available in paperback: Again the information in this book is quickly becoming outdated. Please watch out for misinformation in this book.
