Erik and Ernie – Hilda Has A Cold

A Very Big Sneeze and Some Very Caring Friends

An enormous sneeze sends Erik and Ernie rushing to the farm next door, where Hilda the cow needs comfort, company and a little help from her friends.

Full Product Description

The noise is enough to startle the whole garden. Ernie suspects a monster. Erik recognises a sneeze.

At the farm next door, Hilda the cow is feeling miserable. Her throat is sore, her eyes are watery and the other cows have been less than sympathetic. Fortunately, Erik and Ernie arrive with rather different ideas about how to treat a poorly friend.

Ernie fetches water, spilling plenty along the way. Fifi takes charge of blankets and pillows, while Twitwit brings stories to brighten Hilda’s day. Even sleepy Hix manages to join the effort. Their nursing may be a little noisy, but nobody is leaving Hilda to sniffle alone.

Erik and Ernie: Hilda’s Cold is a warm rhyming story about noticing when someone needs help and finding small ways to offer it. Familiar garden characters bring humour to a gentle tale of friendship and care.

A comforting choice for shared story time, especially for children who know how much a friendly visit can mean on a poorly day.
