It is true that nothing is known about Adrian’s birth, but we know that, during his early years, he was raised by hedgehogs in Birmingham, England. This upbringing would have a lasting effect on him; for example, Adrian is a nocturnal creature who has been known to curl himself into a ball on occasion. In addition, the diet on which Adrian likely subsisted when he was young, namely insects, left him with a phobia for anything
with more than four legs. Nevertheless, Adrian was able to lead a relatively normal life after Mr. and Mrs Smith rescued him from the Birmingham hedgehogs. The Smiths set about teaching Adrian how to behave in the world of humans. First, they taught him to speak English. Second, they taught him to read. Finally, they sent him to a school for the Arts. As a result, Adrian quickly became a talented guitar player, and he decided
that if he could not be a professional musician, he would curl himself into a ball forever. Ultimately, Adrian met some fellow musicians who, in comparison, were as talented as he, and they soon formed a band that became a huge success.
